Today I am grateful,

1. Hearing from a friend who had checked out for awhile,
2. Knowing she is ok and confronting difficult circumstances
3. The settled accomplished feeling of finishing a book
4. Taking notes about the book to preserve the feelings of it a little longer
5. Dyamond’s  post  about owning our truths and claiming our beauty
6. An opportunity to listen to Amelia, my daughter (as they get older, they don’t seem to need as much)
7. Receiving a letter in the mail, not a bill, or junk mail, but a letter
8. Brightly colored summer fruits
9. God is such an abundant Provider!

“Trying excessively to make a point with another may mean that we have not yet made that point with ourselves. I will concentrate today on accepting myself rather than trying to prove something about myself.” ~my friend Letisha
