I’m still plugging away at my 2022 blogging challenge. Each day I am discovering new ways that my life is blessed. Despite all the tragedy and drama in the world, I am discovering I have so much to be thankful for in my life. The trick is to find those blessings in the mundane. I start my day searching for moments of appreciation in my life. The events or things might seem small and insignificant, but they add up to a giant pile of blessings. I’ve never attempted to express gratitude as the primary subject of my writing. This post covers day ninety-two of my 365 days of thankfulness.
Day Ninety-Two of my 365 Days of Thankfulness
On day ninety-two of my 365 days of thankfulness, I am grateful for the two or three or four-year-old kids running on the track today. They could have been twins, but I am not sure. The boy gave it some speed while the girl lagged, twirling in her pretty pink skirt. Mom tried to encourage her to catch up, but the effort proved useless. The encounter made me smile.
This old lady speaks….
This old lady’s opinion is thanksgiving is a matter of choice. Even in the darkness, we can choose to seek the light. My blessings may not be the same as yours because I’m old. I bet if you dig deep, you can come up with something to be thankful for today. Part of the problem with modern life is we neglect to see the small things that make up our common human experience. Thankfulness is an adventure we can all enjoy together. Would you please leave a comment and share with me some of the things you are thankful for today.
