Well, this is not a new idea, but I haven't seen one around these parts.
I think gratitude can be a very healing mindset, and a great way to begin or end a day.

So, no matter how crappy your day has been, and no matter how much problem-solving you may have to do to fix things in your life, no matter even how much you may be suffering just now, no matter how silly or 'small' today's gifts were, let us give thanks for just one thing.

I'll kick us off.

Today I am thankful for... time.

The kind of time that you can choose to spend any way you wish. Time that was not taken from me by things I *must* attend to, or unexpected challenges. Time that I was able to finely spread over the day, doing whatever I wanted.
Today I made time-toast

Today I am thankful for... completing my list!

A true Sunday 'off', as I completed my to-do list yesterday. My virgo moon is in a state of nirvana

Today I want to be thankful for my fingers. They are starting to be more sensitive and powerful working with the needles.

Today I am thankful for... water.

I realised just how much I have used water today and it is only 1530:

Shower
Brushing teeth
Drinking
Laundry
Drink for the cats
Watering my cactus
Washing dishes

Thank you for water, universe!

When I got up this morning,
and made my Coffee---

I was Thankful for the {Java} JOY Juice!!
For that first cup of coffee
that can chase away the nagging background irritation,
and cause that Sun to rise up,
and that fresh Dawn to Happen --
even on an overcast and wetter day!

I'm thankful for crock pots. They do all the hard work for me, especially when I'm feeling this tired. And I'm thankful for a family that enjoys my crock pot creations.
