In Gratitude for being a Butterfly

I Am Grateful 

I am grateful for all the new things;

New day, new dawn, moon dew and love you.

I am grateful for all the old things;

Old shoes, old friends, starlight and love you.

I am grateful or all the slow things,

Slow dance, slow nights, water light and love you.

I am grateful for all the warm things,

Warm eye, warm hearts, passion sighs and love you.

I am grateful for all things,

Sweet things, soft things, splendors all,

And most of all….love you.

What are you grateful for? Let me know.

Try this for a week. In your journal each night write out five things in your day that you were grateful for: but they must be different things…don’t repeat for a week.

Do you keep a gratitude journal?

Is there someone in your life you have not forgiven for some reason.

Find a way to write about something about them you are grateful for.

When you receive an unexpected gift, do you express your gratitude immediately? Do you thank the universe or god?

The more you write and express your gratitude…the closer you come to expressing the goodness all ready within you.

Go out today and find five things your are grateful for in the first hour of your day.

Have fun.

I am grateful if you came to this blog post today and read this. I am grateful if you go out and practice the work.

Have fun.

How fitting to have two of the greats recording artist of all time, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong serenade us with a heady lazy tribute to summertime. Today is one of those glorious, lingering summer days which curls into warm twilight and final into languid night. Outside light splash warm colour up into the canopy of trees. Music rolls around the streets with hot summer beats. Voices call and echo, softened by the heat. And in all the world the living is easy.

Enjoy

Be sure to share this beautiful Sunday with family and friends and walk with them in quiet places and talk of great things.
