the simple things

365_021

in light of the last two weeks and in recognition of the abundance i have, i remember that i'm so blessed by the simple things (won't you join christina today?) For every blogger who signed up to take part Christina and her family are donating $1 to Doctors Without Borders to help in the aid of Haiti. What a beautiful way to help and a reminder what we have...
  • a warm bed
  • a soft blanket, used by my mother, that sometimes feels like her embrace
  • buttered toast
  • a good cup of coffee to get my day going
  • the hugs of children
  • good tires on my jeep
  • co-workers that are a joy to work with
  • blue canning jars filled with purple mums and yellow lilies
  • the fingers of pink clouds that line my sunrise
  • a bowl full of red: macintoshes, honeycrisps and yams
  • houseslippers on my cold feet
  • lime scented soap
  • paints in my craft box
  • pages in my journal
  • silly laughs over a family quirk
  • a clean kitchen
  • pizza together on monday nights
  • my spring countdown
  • the feeling deep in my bones when something feels right
  • the mockingbird singing in the tree
  • the tiny curls on a fern

  • and when i feel sorry for myself - i will remember there is always someone to help
  • and when i feel grumpy - there is always someone that i can make smile
  • and when i'm angry - there is opportunity to make right
  • to remember, change begins with me.
