Not ho-hum.

January 18, 2022
Day 2,282

Thankful for: 

It's already Wednesday. 

My family. 

My job. 

Our home. 

Food to eat and clean water to drink. 

Clothes to wear. 

Trees. 

The sky. 

Birds. 

A warm bed to sleep in. 


Sometimes, people think this is a humble or ho-hum list of things to be thankful for, but is it really? There are people without family, jobs, food, clean water, clothes, a warm bed... I have all of those things. It is not ho-hum to list them. It is healing and calming and grounding to list the things that God has blessed me with. It's the balm for my mind that I never knew existed until I started this exercise in thankfulness.
