Gratitude on 25 November

1. Today, I am grateful that our apartment is so warm, because I know that it is very cold outside.
2. I am grateful for and appreciate all of my friends, because they truly care about me and enjoy spending time with me no matter what is going on in my life. They are there through the good and the bad.
3. I am grateful for our Prius, because it is such an amazing car, and it is my dream car. I still feel giddy whenever I walk up to her!
4. I am grateful for buddhism, and specifically finding a buddhist group near where we live. It is so nice to meet and socialize with other like minded people. I have met so many wonderful people.
5. Every time I go anywhere, I am grateful for living in such a beautiful place. We are always surrounded by beautiful nature scenes, and it is so inspiring. I love living here.
6. I am grateful for the recipe I learned that helps to soothe a sore throat: 2 T lemon juice, 2 T vinegar, 2 T honey, and then add hot water. It is yummy and it helps your throat feel better right away!
7. I am grateful for time. Time really does heal all wounds, although I haven't always believed that. I have lived through some very difficult events, and here I am on the other side.
8. I am grateful for cheese. I just really love cheese. I'm glad someone invented that.
9. I am grateful for M suggesting that we have a turkey-free Thanksgiving this year. I find that I am actually looking forward to the holiday, and am not feeling stressed about it as I usually would.
10. I am grateful for my niece, who I have learned to advocate for, and she has taught me so much about what children want and what children need. She is a constant joy to me!
