Grateful Indeed
When in time or season does your heart find it easier
to leap with gratitude?
Is it when walking thru the meadow during a warm spring
day, with beautiful flowers to the left, gorgeous birds
singing to the right and no storm clouds in sight?
Or in the eye of a fierce, high level hurricane on a
particular hot summer night?
Does it find it hard when the sidewalk is filled with
cracks from wear and tear of life, from falling?
Nonetheless, easy or hard, is there strength in
fighting and holding on to gratitude?
Is there a instant return immediately?
Could that be a better life both at present and
in the future as a positive dividend?
It is o reminder of all the challenges of the past journeys,
upcoming ones but still be so very thankful.
To have this value for life, despite hardships, leads
to a bond wrapped with the special gift of treasured love
of life itself!
To look out the window in the cold, dark of winter
and lfigratively see a tulip bulb sprouting in the coming
spring and smile.is unique.
To appreciate the rain giving us liquid to drink,
and cleaning the air, the natraul water recycle is to
remain hopeful.
To be amazed at the colors of a sunset, the
twinkle of combined stars and the warmth of
the sun on our skin is apprection in thought.
Choosing how to step, no matter the roadway
is our choice
Contest, Attitude of gratitude.
