She taught me how to let go of any negativity.
When I feel any negative feelings I let go and I feel better and more in control of my thoughts.

She bought freah fruits and veggies for me, and visited me.
It made me feel cared for and happy. I didn't have to go to the market.

I felt the cool air, saw the muted sky at sunset, the 3 dimensional clouds and the rainbow lifeguard tower against the backdrop of dark sea
It humbled and awed me

A job was created for me and the package was what I asked for and more.
I received more than what I expected.

She checked up on me, even though it was very late in the evening.
It made me feel cared for and made me feel happy and grateful for her.

My counselor listened to me talk about stuff and we had a good conversation
It was nice because she didn't judge me and made me feel like the way I felt was understandable

My friends cared to know how I was doing when I was sick and checked in with me the next day too.
It reminded me that people think of me and put in effort to let me know it and I should do the same.

I finished (just now) my morning meditation and prayer. I feel full of gratitude and love. I am grateful for so much- the babies my hands and arms have held, the other hands that have held mine, for the textures, rough and smooth I have experienced. I am grateful for the many places my feet have taken me, for the adventures, hikes, rough and smooth paths. They have gone back waterfalls, through rocky places and deserts, through cities and forests. I am grateful for their ability to hold me up during difficult times, good times exciting and boring times. I feel grateful for the people I have met, those I am connected to now, and those who are not in my life now. Seriously- so much. My heart is full.
I am grateful for the process of meditation and prayer.
I am grateful for the process of meditation and prayer.
My body has helped me experience life and has literally supported me. The experiences I have had, the people I have met, connections made have enriched my journey and me. Prayer and meditation have helped open this way of feeling and experiencing new depths of gratitude and awareness.

My mom bought another apple pencil when I bought the wrong one.
I'm glad that she's patient with me enough to let me try buying one again. (and we returned the other one)

I was given the location of another line dance class for seniors, at Rivergrove. It was so much fun and good exercise too!
Exercise and socializing, plus structure to my day.

My phone went to what seemed permanent black screen. SIL fixed it. (Yay!)
Being without my phone, and thinking it was totally gone, helped me see how much I depend on my phone, the wide variety of tasks, etc I use it for.
This has:
Helped me feel gratitude for having the phone
and
Made me aware that there are skills I need to brush up on, like acquiring and reading a map, learning emergency contact phone #s, etc.), and that I need to back certain info up elsewhere.

My SIL stopped what he was doing and helped me with my phone. (It had the ‘Black Screen of Death’).
I was so anxious about my phone. I was canceling all my am appointments and thought I was going to have to spend a ton of $$$ to get a new one. SIL fixed it- lickity-split!
I was able to keep most of my appointments, didn’t spend a bunch of money, AND my anxiety reduced and then disappeared. I now have time to meditate, journal and maybe study. I feel so much gratitude. This small act (small to my SIL) has mad a huge difference to me. ♥️♥️♥️

I got sick over the weekend. Very sick: 102 temperature, chills, couldn't eat, etc. When the symptoms came on, I happened to be at Adele's house, and she took care of me for 24 hours, in her watchful, methodical Adele way. (It's not covid or the flu; we have no idea what it is.)
Michelle pitched in. At one point--I could hear them talking but I was too out of it to interact--Michelle brought over soup and bread. I couldn't really eat anything, but that was Adele's dinner. Later, after Adele went to work and I transferred over to our house, Michelle got me things I might eat, before she continued with social plans to which I insisted she keep. Even Liko pitched in with cups of tea, offered without prompting.
I'm still sick; or maybe I'm just weak from not having eaten; I'm at the stage when it's hard to say. But at six AM on Monday morning, I'm well enough to sit up, type on this computer, and express gratitude to these people for taking care of me.

Nolen came to Thanksgiving dinner, brought greens from his garden and a special pie and wine. Actually went thru some of my stuff and took some. I had fun, even thought he teased me. Cares enough to send emoji when he arrived home safely
Felt like family, complete

It may be a small thing, but I was given the opportunity to do a kindness to the driver next to my car. He wanted to get in my lane, so I waited for him to do so. This is an example of kindness that we can offer each other in a civilized society. It runs counter to the way too many drivers behave and maybe, who knows, it could affect the behavior of other drivers in seeing that I allowed the car to get into my lane.
I felt grateful to have the chance to do a kindness for another on the road.

Yesterday I wrote about expecting a feast for dinner, something I was able to take for granted. I am grateful that I can take such privileges for granted, and I hope I am always aware of this. Also, the dinner was excellent, everyone got along well, and everyone was healthy. That's a lot!
I felt relaxed and happy.

yesterday I adopted a 1 year old cat that was rescued from a cat colony. She was very nervous and hid under my office desk the entire time and today she finally let me feed her a treat and i heard purring! i feel so grateful for the chance to have a cat and for the chance to build trust with the cat. it's so encouraging when i see little positive steps into taming her
made me feel excited and happy!

I said yesterday thanks to a business partner for helping me out quickly in a difficult situation last week and I got a big thanks in advance for doing what I did in our joint venture.
It felt quite good and I would not have expected a thanks from that person ever. So it was for an "aha" - be kind an people will also give you a feedback that wouldn't otherwise.
