Friday's Special Moments of Gratitude

8/12/2011

Sunsets at the lake are something I never take for granted.

It is Friday and time to reflect upon the special moments of the week that I am grateful to have experienced. This week I thought I would make a list. Usually, I feel compelled to explain everything but this week I hope that the list will speak for itself.

Some of the special moments that I am grateful for this week are:
The laughter of children
Watching my husband launch the model boat he has been working on for many years
Help from a new online friend
Enjoying the sights, smells, and sounds of nature
A very thought provoking bookclub meeting full of people I have never met before but being inspired by their stories
Enjoying lunch at a new and different restaurant
Launching my online workshop Circle of Dreams
Working on my book
Taking pictures
A great yoga class

Each day is special and unique. I find that when I take the time to reflect upon all that is good and beautiful in the world that I live in, more good and beauty seems to appear each day. I would love to know what special moments you experienced this week. I have found that there is power in sharing!

Your list makes me feel happy. I've had a lot of disappointments this week, so it's hard to come up with my special moments, but I know it is so much better to focus on the positive. I had a few nice walks, a massage, and lots of good hugs from my husband. Have a wonderful weekend, xoxo

I enjoyed your list and I love the idea of posting what you're grateful for in list form. I would like to do this myself, if I remember to do it. Reading your posts always inspires me to try more to be present and pay attention during my days, to be on the lookout for the good stuff. Because it's there, right under our noses. And you remind me of that every time I visit you here.

I so glad you enjoy my artist's date posts! You know what? I am all for trying new places to eat and it's one of my favorite things to do. Tapas is something I had yet to try and now you've got me itching to do so very soon. There are several suppposedly really good tapas bars around here. And yes, my waistline is suffering, as well. But that just means that I need to pull out the Marisa Tomei exercise video and hula hoop my brother and sister-in-law got me for my birthday this year! hee hee!

Congratulations to your husband on the launching of his boat.
