Gratitude

The traditional Thanksgiving Day has come and gone, but it made me think, shouldn’t we celebrate it every day? Studies have shown that people who are grateful have higher levels of well-being. They tend to be happier, more satisfied, develop self acceptance, and purpose in their lives.  They sleep better, and cope better, with positive thoughts and actions.  Life just tends to be better!   And, I am all for that!

So Cheers to celebrating Thanksgiving each and ever day!

Just a thought!

Since ’77 – A Love Story

I met a man in his early 50’s, a few weeks ago, who was driving a 77 dusty blue corvette. His license tag read Since 77. Durning my conversation with him he said that people often assumed that he had owned the car since 1977, and would come up to him to talk him about it.  He said the truth was that he had been with his wife since 77, not the car.  The car was just a bonus.

He had been happily married since he was 19. They had children and grandchildren, and he had retired early to Asheville, NC.  I questioned him a little more, always wanting to hear more of a love story, and he seemed happy with his life and his choices.  In fact, he was smiling when he announced that today was his anniversary!

Wishing them 32 more, happy, years together!

Love,

Saint Theresa’s Prayer

May today there be peace within.

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant

to be.

 

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of

faith.

 

May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on

the love that has been given to you.

 

May you be confident knowing you are a child of God. Let

this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the

freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.
