Gratitude Challenge A-Z
Tag, you’re it!
Sally Prag came up with a wonderful challenge to honor World Gratitude Day. She asked that we come up with a list of things that we are grateful for from A-Z. I was tagged by the lovely, Shirley Laffa. Thank you so much for tagging me!
I am a person that spends a lot of time being thankful for what I have. I know all too quickly how fast life can change and that what we have today may not be here tomorrow. I came up with a list of things that bring me happiness and that I am grateful for.
Here We Go!
Air — I am thankful for the air that I breathe and every single breath that I take
Beach — The beach is one of my happy places, it brings me back to so many memories and brings me joy and peace
Chocolate — I am hooked, I love chocolate so much. Any kind, any type, I am all for it!
Day — I just love waking up to a brand-new day. There are so many opportunities and possibilities that it can bring you
Essential Oils — They have the power to transport you to another dimension with their stress-reducing properties
Family/Friends — The backbone of my life
God — I am not sure where I would be today without the love, hope, and guidance of the Dear Lord
Holidays — I am a huge lover of holidays. I enjoy getting loved ones together and I love all of the special events, decorations, and foods that go into making each holiday very special
Ice cream — This cold and tasty treat is one of my favorites on a hot summer day. I haven’t had a flavor that I didn’t like!
Jokes — Being able to laugh at yourself and life is so important, it can get you through some difficult times
Kindness — There is never enough. We all have the power to change a life. One smile, one gesture, or a helping hand can work wonders to lift someone up
Laughing — I love to laugh, and I will do just about anything to get those around me to laugh as well. The best laughs are the ones that make you cry!
Medium — A few days shy of my second month on Medium and I am already hooked. This platform has changed my life in so many ways and has brought me so much joy and hope
Night — There is something about the peaceful and stillness of the night that gets me. I love the time to reflect in solitude
Opportunities — The chance to wake up each day and have the whole world out there to explore. You never know what may cross your path!
Purple — My absolute favorite color ever and has been since I was a little girl
Quiet time — There is never enough of it. I love to sit in a quiet room or outside in nature and just reflect on myself and my life
Rain — I adore the rain and how it makes me feel so cozy. I love the smell and sound, and I could watch it outside of my window for hours
Sweater weather — I am a huge lover of all things cozy. Fall is my favorite season and also happens to be when we need to start pulling out the sweaters!
Today — I am so thankful for today and every day. Life is nothing short of a miracle and a blessing
Understanding — I am grateful for the ability to understand and be understood. There is nothing like humanity coming together and becoming one
Vacations — We all need them, even if they end up being staycations!
Words — As a writer, there is such beauty in words coming together to make a masterpiece
X-rays — Thankful for medicine and the ability to receive health care. Thankful that there is technology to help diagnose medical issues
You — Yes, I am so very thankful for YOU! Your support, love, and encouragement throughout this journey are appreciated beyond words
Zest — I am very blessed to have a passion and energy for life and all that it has to offer
