Friday's Special Moments of Gratitude

12/2/2011

It is Friday.  Friday is the day that I set aside to reflect and think back on the week and all of the moments that I have to be grateful for.  Some weeks it is all about people.  Some weeks it is about nature or that special cup of coffee.  Once in a while there are really big moments to celebrate but most of the time it is about the simple things that happen that I am most grateful for. 
This week I am most grateful for the kindness of people.  It has been a stressful week but everywhere we went we met (sometimes just for a second) people who went out of their way to be kind.  I am grateful for the quick smile from a stranger, the incredible amount of time my husband's doctor spent with him, the down and dirty CPR class I received from my trainer, and all of  the kind words I received from fellow bloggers.  In the midst of all our unexpected medical adventures this week, we were getting the inside of our house painted.  I am so grateful to the painters who went out of their way to do lots of extra things that we had not asked for but that they realized would make our lives easier. 
Each day comes with its own special moments.  As I continue this practice of gratitude, I become more and more convinced that even in the midst of very trying  times there are many many moments to appreciate and be grateful for.  I believe when we slow down and take the time to notice and appreciate each moment our lives become even more blessed.  This week has certainly proven that to me.
What are you grateful to have experienced this week?

I believe kindness begets kindness. Your attitude of appreciation brings you more blessings. Have a relaxing weekend, my friend!

I think its so beautiful that you set aside a specific day of the week to reflect back on all that you are grateful for. I am going to start doing this. It will become part of my Sabbath ritual. Thank you for the inspiration!

I love that a day is dedicated to being grateful---I might take that idea on, myself. Even something like a special cup of coffee or a smile that makes your day better is something to give thanks for. What a lovely post, Ginny. I hope your hubby is doing better now. How wonderful that he has really caring doctors!
