Somehow this looking for things to be thankful for has created a monster in me. I am generally thankful. For my family, friends, house, food, clothes, freedom etc.
So this weird thing keeps happening. I find my self thankful for things that I don’t always like. Why is that?
For example
Voting—a privilege but not “fun”—hard work figuring out what my stance on some issues were
Joshua—love him but being thankful for his chatter & quirks can be interesting some days
Busy(tiring)—days
Mending?—I hate to mend things—hence the pile up
Anyway.
Posting something on Facebook causes me to look for things to be thankful for in the everyday. Of course I am thankful for the above mentioned “normal” stuff. On a bad day it can be challenging to find things I am thankful for. However, I find that it has changed my attitude as I go through my day.
Being thankful is a choice. I am growing through that choice. How about you?
