Today could have been a day that I let things get to me. I got up at my regular time of 3:50am and started my day at the gym. Home and ready for school by 7:30 I started out the door I looked down and at my side as always Cooper was looking up at me. I took the time to sit on the floor and love on him until 7:45. I guess I just wanted to stay home to close myself off from the world.
I’m a stickler for following through with things I commit to so off to school to teach. On my way I found myself overwhelmed with a feeling of blessings. With all that is going on all my blessings was the last thing I thought would come to mind. I found it hard to see anything other than the good in my life. God is and has blessed Greg and I with so much the past few months. This morning it was as if all my blessings were pouring over my heart. Filling me up with gratefulness and thanksgiving. I’m not perfect I tried to question things. “What about this or that” but still I couldn’t steer my heart in any other direction but one of gratefulness.
I take my grandson home from school each day. He is in my last art class of the day. I normally walk him to the door and say hello to my daughter and grand-daughter and rush off to do projects. Today was different I took the time to go in and sit down. I had a conversation with my daughter and loved on my grand-daughter. I didn’t finish up any projects today. When I came home I decided to sit with my husband eat dinner and watch a movie. Time with the ones you love is so very important. It’s in those moments that your blessings are reviled and you grow and trust in your faith.
Todays blog is short and sweet. My point is that loving life, the good and bad days make you love your life. I’ll be back on projects tomorrow. I’m just tired and need rest today. In reality this world is huge and so full of things that are blessings. Tomorrow is yet another chance to live the blessed life I’ve been given.
