(excerpt taken from a gratitude blog)...
"To me, gratitude comes in those small spaces of breathing between all the tiny moments that happen throughout our days, when the phone rings, and its the voice of a dear friend you were just thinking about, when a stranger opens a door for you, when an unexpected package arrives in the mail. It's honoring all the small moments, the ones that collect and create a perimeter of goodness around your life. It's paying attention to the way someone looks at you, to the way you feel when you're inspired, to how those cute new shoes put a skip in your step. Gratitude. It's recognizing, even in times of struggle, that you have all you could ever need, that there are moments every single day that ask you to notice, and to celebrate. It's in these moments, for me, especially the small ones, where gratitude lives."
I have all I need right here with my sweet family....a wonderful loving husband and three amazing beautiful, healthy daughters....thank you God! It is the small moments of life we need to celebrate to appreciate the bigger picture. Sometimes all it takes to remind me is some amazing words from a gratitude blog....Happy Sunday to all my blogger friends. Signing off...Tara
