While on our journey we can get busy, focused, engaged in such a way that we might miss how fortunate we are to have such a great life. And when we do pick up our head or are reminded by someone else how wonderful life is it feels good to be thankful for all that we have. It is a simple step to take and in so doing our gratitude for having found our way on our journey becomes more and more real and important. It gets even better when we internalize this feeling and realize that so many of the sources of goodness come from others around us as much as from our own lives. We travel this journey, not alone, but together and for this we are grateful and appreciative and being appreciative makes it just that much more meaningful.

Loving life when I appreciate all that I have
