Go beyond merely counting your blessings.
Take them out, immerse yourself in their value, and bring them more fully to life each day.
What you're able to make use of most passionately and effectively will then come to you in even greater abundance.
The best way to be thankful for anything is to completely and purposefully put it to use.
Ralph Marston
GOOD MORNING !
I hope everyone had a great day yesterday. I had intended on staying at home all day, but did go out a bit. My next door sister and I went to visit our youngest sister and her family for awhile. She had some yummy desserts that we enjoyed for sure.
The whole month of November I've tried to follow the theme of blessings and being thankful for them. Next month I'm going to try and follow the theme of Gifts.
I know that with the Christmas season I'll also find a multitude of other topics too, but the one of 'gifts' can cover a wide range all by itself.
Today 3 of my babes (DD, DS#5 and DS#6) and I are going to one of the little towns near by for a little old fashioned shopping and enjoy some good food too!
We always try to avoid any shopping malls or department stores, but try and go off the beaten track and see something different.
It is only 30 degrees here this morning and snow is predicted. I don't think we'll see much, but you never know....
BLESSING FOR THE DAY
FAMILY
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.
