Gratitude Abound

“In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.” –Schweitzer

Earlier today- a dear friend posted this quote on her Facebook wall.    I absolutely LOVED it.  It resonated deep with me, not just because it is so beautiful (and to know me is to know how much I love quotes), but because it came at just the right moment-  the end of an amazing day, where I felt like I have awakened after a deep sleep.

Not only am I feeling grateful, I’m also feeling joyous for the simply amazing people that are a part of my life.     I claimed before my birthday that this year was going to be the best ever and now I actually FEEL that way.  When I look around, all I can feel is amazed.   This is MY LIFE-    Is it perfect? Nope- and you know what?  It never will be.  Perfection is a myth-     What it is for sure, is that it’s filled with many AMAZING people, who love me, support and encourage me and without knowing have set my soul on fire!!      I have a great life-  and I am SO grateful for that- for each and every blessing, and each and every person that is a part of that.

The sky is the limit-   🙂

Building Fences

Filed under: Home,Shop til ya Drop — gardener @ 11:09 am

A few days ago I called mom and diddy for one of my sometimes many daily calls. I could tell that they were in the middle of something and come to find out, she was ordering t slots for the fence that diddy was building. It was ironic because she sounded relieved when she realized it was me, and she apparently was having some problems with how to complete the order process (she doesn’t order online much), so I was able to walk her through it- and diddy was happy because his t slots are on the way.

Even though I’m miles away- I love that they send me photos as they work on these projects.. The fence looks great so far, and I can’t wait to see it when it’s done. Somehow, those little snippits of their day makes them seem closer and makes me feel a part of things.
