What are you grateful for?

// April 21st, 2009 // Inspiration, Life (and the living of it), Time

It’s such an over-asked question, isn’t it?

But it can have an extraordinarily far-reaching effect if you answer it honestly.

I’ve been reeaall busy lately. Real busy. Have I mentioned that I’ve been real busy? Trying to juggle a handful of really exciting balls (Strange Nervous Laughter in the USA, online marketing, Round the World trip and sponsorship, as well as that old thing called everyday life and, oh yes! Work!)

What’s interesting, though, is that no matter how exciting the work is, when I’m busy busy I tend to get focused on it and not much else. Which means I’m not very happy, or excited, or joyful. Which is why it’s such a treat to stumble across the ‘What are you grateful for right now?’ question (a question I found while editing one of my blog posts from three months ago), and answer it honestly. You might have a heap of to-do’s on your list, but if you can be grateful for a cup of hot tea, a slice of fresh banana bread, a cool breeze and blue skies, and a man you love, that’s a pretty wonderful morning, don’t you think?

So what are you grateful for?
