Sunshine!

This morning, I awoke at 6:10AM and decided to close my eyes for a bit more sleep. I woke again at 7:50 with the sun streaming into my bedroom windows. Sunshine! It has been quite cloudy and rainy for the past week here. While the bleak weather encouraged me to stay indoors and tackle some serious organizing chores, it was very nice to see the sun.

It turned out to be short-lived as clouds moved in within the hour. Still, grateful for it.

The gift of time

I spent the day organizing and cleaning drawers in my bathroom and office. I am lucky to have a job with generous time off.

Trying again - 2016

I'm back after a rather pitiful attempt in January to record daily gratitudes. I will start on this eve of the eve of the eve of the New Year so that the pressure of keeping a New Year's resolution is off. I tried that with my resolution to meditate daily. On Christmas, I committed to meditating daily and have managed to sit every evening since. I know, it has only been four days, but it's a start.

I'm grateful for new beginnings.
