It’s
the time of year to focus on gratitude.
It usually doesn’t occur to me to be grateful for the mundane, routine
events of a day. When I am ill, injured
or have other interferences to my routine, only then do I usually miss the
ordinary, humdrum day. Then, I miss the
ordinariness of taking a shower, fixing a meal, cleaning house, driving to work,
doing paperwork…
Today,
my intention is to have a grateful heart for the simple everyday activities I
take for granted. I will acknowledge with
appreciation the people who show up for me day in and day out. I will recognize with awe the abundant gift that 'just another regular day' really is and remember the many people who would love to have this gift. I want to remain aware of the extraordinary-ness of simple daily routine.
I give thanks for this day that holds out promise and
possibility.
