remember when i was doing that ‘grateful daily’ thing? (it was inspired by this yummy goddess)
well… as you are aware- i am not so good with following through with projects.. that’s not the point though.
the act of taking the time each day, or every other day- to remember what i am grateful for really brings everything into perspective.
suddenly shitty little things don’t matter any more. your entire day can be shifted from bad to wonderful…
my sweet friend, deb is the queen of bringing it back to the earth, to the heart and soul… she is light. you won’t catch her complaining about anything- without finishing it off with ‘but i am so grateful for this.’
she inspires me to remember to do this. she makes me want to be better.
it’s not like she’s overly cheerful happy happy sunshine… she’s real, and genuine. has dealt with things that a lot of people don’t have to deal with, and things that many others do-she just chooses to deal with them differently. to see the greater picture- or to remind herself when things start to get hectic and crazy of what she has- and it grounds her, and makes her appreciate everything even more.
and with that- she is light, her soul is intoxicating. she is so yummy.
she honours the light inside you, believes in you, coaches you.
she makes the chaos calm down, and put you back in your place gently. and i love it… and i want to learn from it.
i am learning from it.
i have so much to be thankful for, and i think it is in good practice to find a time, a moment, a thought- each day to bring things back to us. to now. to remember what we are grateful for. to find a blessing in everything.
rather than waiting all year (for those who celebrate thanksgiving) to have an excuse to remember.

although, i’m having a hard time finding the blessing in these pimples that just popped up on my cheek. deb?
