There’s nothing like a gorgeous weather day to fill my heart with gratitude.
- the feel of my skin as it is caressed by a soft, warm breeze
- the sound of the leaves tossing together high in the trees
- the smile of surprise when spotting a frog who has been quietly wallflowering with the ground
- the feeling of accomplishment that weeding provides
- reminding myself that pulling weeds in my garden is just like what I try to do with the ingrained behaviors I’d be better off without
- remembering to try to label instead of my usual judging of thoughts and feelings
- the staredown I had with a songbird as she sat on her eggs and let me come within 2 feet of her.
- that the bird, as well she should, won the staredown and stayed put.
- the little butterfly that landed on my thumb and allowed me to examine it closely.
- relaxation
