Hello Dear Reader,
I thought I'd share a bit of mindfulness today. Here are the things I'm grateful for today
My healthy family who work hard on being positive, occupied, busy and well.
Being close to my family and being able to get together.
Great times with friends.
The positive attitudes of the people I surround myself with.
Cornwall won at Twickenham today!
I live comfortably.
I live in freedom.
I live in a country in peacetime.
I live in a democracy.
I have choices.
The changing seasons.
I have a job I love.
I am safe and loved.
There is food in the house.
Fresh air.
It's not raining.
Warm breeze.
I'm well enough and motivated enough to exercise.
The lush green trees and fields I can see from the window as I type.
Clean clothes.
My resilience, health and tenacity.
I started writing this blog as a point of reflection where I could look at the sum of all my days. I no longer have any reasons to moan, to worry, to be unhappy and can now reflect on all the good times that make this life so wonderful. It might all sound a bit smug and self satisfied but no one has to read it. I could sit on my backside and do nothing but I would be bored and that's just not me. Reflecting on this week, we've gardened, walked, cycled, met up with friends, gone out with family (offspring are well), eaten out, some more walking, some decorating, some de-cluttering, had my hair done, been to the salon, had lots of lazy lie ins, stacked away the winter logs, watched films and read books. We've spent no more than we could afford and had budgeted for and have topped up our relaxation batteries for the weeks ahead until the summer break when we go away.
Over to you to share your mindfulness; what do you have to be grateful for today?
Until tomorrow,
Love Froogs xxxx
