On Gratitude and Spring

Filed under: Inspiration,Life — gardener @ 9:15 am

Yesterday I started a little Facebook hiatus in order to try to spend more time focused on other things that were far more pressing. My original plan was to just ‘go’ and not mention it to but a few of my closest friends and family (who I have contact with outside of Facebook), but then decided that since I get quite a few messages daily, that I really didn’t want people to think that I’d just ‘disappeared’, so I posted a little hiatus announcement. I love Facebook and most of my favorite people are there- but I’ve been spinning my wheels on a few things, and I knew that I really didn’t need the distraction- and lets face it- Facebook is a huge distraction. I don’t spend hours at a time on Facebook and 90% of the time it’s via the iPad or iPhone, but 20 minutes here and there adds up to precious time that can be better spent somewhere else – so I said adios for a while. It’s only day two and I know that it was the right decision.

This morning I woke up feeling grateful about many things. I was thrilled to look out and see blue skies (something we’ve seen far too little of lately), plus to see that my plants are starting to show a little green. Spring is definitely almost here and today’s weather is that confirmation.

 

My Gratitude List for March 11, 2012.

Today I’m Grateful for:

  • Sitting for hours with a dear friend, drinking coffee and chatting about everything.
  • The gorgeous blue skies and the way the sun feels against my skin.
  • Seeing little hints of Spring everywhere I look.
  • Chia seeds- my new ‘favorite thing’ and the abundance of energy  I seem to be getting from them.
  • Learning to let go and do what works for me- not what others expect of me.
