Grateful for the weather and for my plants outside flowering.

Grateful for doing better on my mountain bike ride today. It was gorgeous weather and my stamina seems to already be somewhat improved...or maybe it's just an easier trail. Anyway, I was glad to see and hear all the "wildlives," nuthatches, deer, squirrels, chipmunks, and even a box turtle. Glad to get out in the woods and be active again.

And grateful for Mike & Ike Zours candy.

Makes so much sense now, doesn't it? teehee. Good job, Missy! Glad you're here.

Grateful for a new massage therapist, her "magic fingers" machine, and instructions for stretches. I can't believe that it's taken over four years and I-don't-know-how-many therapists, one finally told me something I
can do for my pain. :c029: But glad for it.

And grateful for my ex's help setting up my new iPhone, even though he wasn't very nice a lot of the time. Glad that's done...mostly.

Love and hugs,
Eddie :a122:

Grateful to get through a long, stressful work day; 5 am - 7 pm. Tomorrow I start at 5 am again for more insanity.

Grateful while on my drive home and at a red light, a couple in a car in front of me were leaning over to each other and kissing repeatedly. It was good to see love expressed.

Grateful for a good work day and a really nice sewing class this evening.

Grateful that I could listen to my colleague (who knows stuff) about how to talk to a student who is obviously drinking. Interesting. I wondered if she was talking to me really....

Grateful that I'm through 8 days and heading for nine.

FLBeachGuy 10-02-2014 01:40 AM

Grateful
For this community.

That I don't have insomnia every single night, but when I do I can enjoy the stillness and quiet of the night, and enjoy the time. I just got back from a nice extended gaze at the sky walking on the beach. I saw a shooting star in the soft breeze near the Little Dipper.

I wanted to wish for something for myself but couldn't think of anything.

"May all beings be happy, at ease, well and safe from harm"
which blended into the Bob Marley song
"Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy."

Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality.

Marcher13 10-02-2014 04:06 AM

Grateful for a quote I remembered today:

To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.

Grateful I was off today.

Grateful when I couldn't sleep in the middle of last night, I boldly signed up for EHarmony.... doing this is so unlike the old me, that I can't even convey it to you all!!.... Lol

Grateful I am getting some nibbles lol
Grateful I have been acknowledging to myself that I don't want to be alone anymore. Which finally led to me doing something.

I'm so glad you shared this! I have been considering that, mostly because my therapist keeps asking me about my love life and I keep telling him I'm not interested anymore. But it might be nice; I don't know....

Grateful for a great single-track ride at Salem Lake today. I am get so much better lately. The only time I fell was while I was walking the bike. Too funny.

And grateful for the Social Action Yoga group that I started tonight. I didn't realize it was going to be about personal transformation; I thought it was more a series of classes on the chakras. But this should be even better!

Grateful to be able to hear two lovely children chattering away in the backseat tonight.....and escape for a moment into their lives. See things from their perspective. So refreshing.
