Grace in Small Things Part 1 of 365
My Google Reader has become populated with posts called Grace in Small Things. Each time I read someone’s list, I think, “I should sign up to do that.” But I never do. Until now.
Lately my blogging has gotten incredibly lazy, so I have decided to join in the Grace. I’m hoping that I can stick with it for an entire year so every day, for the next 364, I am going to post a list of five things that have graced my life, either on the day I write the list, or in my life in general. To read more about why Schmutzie began this endeavor to make us all appreciate the good stuff in our lives , go here. If you’d like to sign up and join me, go here.
- Being married to someone who says sweet things that no one has ever said to me before
- Getting on the scale and seeing realizing I am back on the weight loss track.
- Being able to use our grill year-round, despite the season.
- Rainy Sundays with hours of shows on the DVR
- My Photoshop class. It’s renewing my passion for photography and I’m learning some nifty new tricks.
I love this idea! I’ll think about it… I think it would really help me stay positive more often.
I used to do this in my journal. Before each entry I’d list five things I was grateful for. It makes a difference.
Numbers one and two are especially smile-inducing.
I love #4. That’s one of my favorite things too.
#4 sounds like heaven!!
It seems like such a great idea, I’m thinking maybe next year though – I haven’t been feeling particularly “graced” this last year. Enjoy the journey.
