Last night Katie invited us to go get ice cream. 🍦
I sat in the back with Kona. 🐾
I am so thankful for the moments like this. 🥰
Living Each Day in Thanksgiving to me means appreciating all the gifts I receive from the Creator but also means I am in a relationship with these gifts. ❤️
Last nights gift was Community. My family circle is the community where we can laugh, enjoy the quiet moments, share how our day is going etc. As I sat in the back and reflected on the last 26 years of how the love between two people grew to include a child and then a pet and I was humbled to know that time can seem forever and fleeting all at the same time. ⏳🧑🧑🧒
26 years of love, appreciation, adventures, facing problems together etc. a long time and in a week will also be a new chapter.
Last night was a gift to hear the conversation between a father and a daughter. A gift of a memory to warm my heart and soul when my daughter is at college. 🤗
The Creator says we should appreciate the gifts but if we want to continue to receive the gifts we have to show our appreciation through actions and continue to tend to the relationship. 🎙️🕺
My family is my wealth. My parents and grandparents taught me that and I hope with all my heart that is what my daughter will know too. 🥰
If you do not have a family circle that brings you joy, comfort, and safety then no matter how much money or objects you have your heart and spirit will feel like something is missing.
Now my family circle did not just happen. It took me committing to first the relationship
with my husband and we then opened our hearts and home to our daughter. We nurtured that relationship with words and actions to keep that relationship growing.
I am thankful for the 26 years so far and I am looking forward to many more.
Gratitude is saying the words of appreciation. My actions of making the thing I appreciate by nurturing it shows the Creator how much I appreciate it.
Words + Action = Peace, Balance and Harmony ☮️⚖️🎶
