Grateful Start
How we start our day is important. It dictates generally how the rest of our day will go, give or take the chance of bad luck striking at any given moment. My mornings are simple and uncomplicated and I cross my fingers that that’s how they will continue to go. Mornings are a time when I can create my own little sanctuary of peace which usually looks like a cup of coffee, some type of journal or newspaper and some sunshine. Somewhere in there I sprinkle in a secret ingredient and that’s a moment of gratitude. I say, write or simply think to myself a few things that I hold dear to my heart that I’m grateful for. Today my gratitudes look like: I’m grateful the sun is in the sky, my coffee is hot and the unexpected waits for me.
