Happy Easter Digital neighbors! Happy Saturday (posting this on Sunday since yesterday got away from me.) Yesterday was a beautiful day, I spent a fair amount of it outside. The Cicadas are just beginning to call, Rylee has discovered that they taste pretty good, and the day was perfect weather wise. It was a day to give thanks for such simple things in creation. Scott and his wife Gerry helped me assemble a grill which would have been well beyond my ability and probably would have tested and wrecked my patience. To be fair, Scott did most of the assembling, I did what I was told. It was a great day to be thankful for little things that are so good.
BE THANKFUL
Be thankful that you don’t already have everything you desire. If you did, what would there be to look forward to? Be thankful when you don’t know something
For it gives you the opportunity to learn. Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow. Be thankful for your limitations Because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge. Because it will build your strength and character. Be thankful for your mistakes They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you’re tired and weary. Because it means you’ve made a difference. It is easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks. Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive. Find a way to be thankful for your troubles and they can become your blessings.
