5 Things

So...

I'm having a hard time thinking of something to write about today.

I'm thinking that maybe, since it's about that time to start being thankful, I'd get a head start. So, here are 5 things that I am thankful for today.

1. My health. I'm very healthy, and I am so glad that I don't have any serious problems.

2. My dog! I'm so glad she's here, and that she's healthy too.

3. My income. I have a job, well, I have two jobs, and I'm very very thankful for that.

4. My friends. Of course. and everyone who reads this blog. Yes, that still counts as one.

5. Clean water. Not everyone in the world is privileged to have clean water to drink or to bathe in, and I am so very very thankful for that.

Yup! That's my tentative list for today. There are many many many more things I am thankful for, but these are the five things that came to my mind the quickest! Feel free to share what you're thankful for.

Hope everyone's week is going well so far :)

Taking This In

This mornings bike ride was filled with a lot of thought about being happy.

I came to the realization that although I don't have a lot of money, and although I don't make a lot of money, I am still very happy. I have a pretty great life. I'm doing what I really love to do. I have wonderful friends, and a wonderful boyfriend. I have a very full life.

I'm healthy, and just about everyone I care about is healthy.

I live in a fantastic city, and I am surrounded by inspiration. Life is good.

It's hard to focus on these things sometimes, but I think by doing it a little each day, it can make a huge difference.

It's a beautiful day in the Rose City! I hope you're having a lovely day too :)
