For the next thirty days I am going to focus on gratitude. For the month of November (yes a day late, I realize) I am going to post what I am grateful for.
Before I begin, Nancy posted these levels of gratitude. Where do you fall? Where do you want to be?
- I look at the world through grateful eyes and consistently express my gratitude to God and others.
- I know I’ve been greatly blessed, but I don’t often stop to actually express my gratitude to God and others.
- To be honest, I had not thought a lot about gratitude until starting this challenge. I’ve got a long way to go to develop a lifestyle of gratitude.
- I’m a whiner! I tend to focus on my problems and I frequently express them to others.
Today I am grateful for the snow.
I am grateful for how it covers the landscape and makes things appear still and quiet. Looking out the window (it snowed here last night) I think of Narnia - how it is always Christmas. Somehow things seem frozen in time. It allows me to be still for a moment. There is hope in snow. New possibility.
I am grateful for snow when I don't have to drive in it. I love snow when I get to stay in and read a book, drink coffee and leave the winter wonderland on the other side of my window.
What are you grateful for today?
