I’ve kept a gratitude journal on and off for a number of years, but am currently in an off phase. I hope to resume my bedtime ritual of listing five things I’m grateful for, but in the meanwhile:
Today I am grateful . . .
- my sister helped me feel more at peace about a friend’s death.
- my critique group gifted me another week to finish the draft of my work-in-progress and that
- I am, indeed, making progress on that work.
- I enjoyed a calm, non-aggressive walk in the warm sunshine with Emma, even though we passed other dogs.
- I completed my four-minute plank despite learning the hard way that Led Zeppelin’s Four Sticks is absolutely not a good motivational song. Nope, not even close.

that’s a plank

Yeah, it is. I wanted to put the specific time in here since this blog is essentially my diary. A documentation of my days.

Gratitude is such an underrated emotion. Being grateful for some aspect of your life keeps you in balance with the stupidity that assaults us every day.
I am grateful to you for reminding me of the importance of gratitude. 🙂
