Let's get the gratitude juices flowing!

GRATITUDE - warmly or deeply appreciative of kindness or benefits received; very thankful. [Gratitude Week begins here. Click for this week's Bliss Initiatives.]

OK itis time to get those gratitude juices flowing!

I am grateful for the magic light which can be seen, it turns out in the morning  as beautifully as early evening, as the sun just approaches the horizon.

I am grateful for the gentle snores of my husband and child.

I am grateful for the smell of fresh coffee.

I am grateful for time by myself.

I am grateful I do very well on little sleep.

I shared these things before and I enjoy the fact they continue to give me such pleasure. The simplest things in life really are what make a heart sing.

Let the world know what you are grateful for today in this fun linky (feel free to link your grateful posts or a list of the things that speak to your heart today) or in a comment!

    I have so much to be thankful for right now! The biggest being that The Hubbums got a job and is now teaching happily! That makes my heart happy. (On another note - I wanted to let you know that your posts are showing up in Google reader VERY delayed - I just got your 'banned from Twitter' post today - that's odd. Just thought you would want to know!) (Oh...and that post was funny! LOL!)

Ben Franklin's 13 Virtues

  • 1. TEMPERANCE - Eat not to dullness; drink not to elevation.
  • 2. SILENCE - Speak not what may benefit others or yourself; avoid trifling conversation.
  • 3. ORDER - Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have its time.
  • 4. RESOLUTION - Resolve to perform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve.
  • 5. FRUGALITY - Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself; i.e. waste nothing.
  • 6. INDUSTRY - Lose no time; be always employ'd in something useful; cut off all unnecessary actions.
  • 7. SINCERITY - Use no hurtful deceit; think innocently and justly, and if you speak, speak accordingly.
  • 8. JUSTICE - Wrong none by doing injuries, or omitting the benefits that are your duty.
  • 9. MODERATION - Avoid extreams; forbear resenting injuries so much as you think they deserve.
  • 10. CLEANLINESS - Tolerate no uncleanliness in body, cloaths or habitation.
  • 11. TRANQUILITY - Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or unavoidable.
  • 12. CHASTITY - Rarely use venery but for health or offspring, never to dullness, weakness, or to the injury of your own or another's peace or reputation.
  • 13. HUMILITY - Imitate Jesus and Socrates.
