Our blessings

ZenHabits has a nice little article up on remembering our blessings.

I like this blog a lot. I've linked to it before but something about this particular post really hit me deep. When I stop and consider all the wonderful things I'm blessed with...I feel overwhelmed. Honestly. I feel like I lead a charmed life. When I consider my family, friends (especially all of you guys), co-workers, where I'm at in life, well...I just get all teary eyed.

It wasn't until December that for the first time in a long time I had to fall back on people. If you've ever done that trust exercise where you stand on a plank and fall backwards with your arms crossed...it was kind of like that.

Anyways, I made a little list and posted it on my workstation...

My Blessings:

1. I am alive.

2. I am the healthiest I've ever been.

3. I have a wonderful job and a wonderful boss.

4. I live in a beautiful city.

5. I have a powerful mind.

6. I have loving family and friends.

7. I have the ability to love my family and friends with the same amount of genuineness they love me.

8. I feel protected by the Universe regardless of how bad things seem.

9. I strive to be the best person I can be, on a daily basis.

The feeling just kind of hit and I thought I would share. =)

And by all means, if any of you guys have a list, let em rip!

Def and Cyrusse,
What kind of fruit do you guys like? I need practice with my pie making and you will try some at one point!

You may have averted my first attempt to stuff you with pie...but not again...unless you refuse to tell me what kind of fruit you guys like...then I guess my plan has a flaw. But you wouldn't NOT tell me what kind of fruit you like? Would you?
