I’m So Full
Nov 26, 2009 A House is a Home
I can’t imagine I’ll ever be hungry again. Yes, I know it’s not possible. None the less, I’m stuffed to the gills.
For myself, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude. I live a life of privilege. I’m married to a man that loves me and wants to reach for his dreams. He inspires me to let go of my fears and jump. We live in a beautiful house that fulfills one of our many dreams. I love that it’s old and that it has a life beyond mine. I hope that it survive my own life and is a dream house for the future. I even love the constant need for fixing something. I’m always learning something new.
I’m thankful for my creative talents. I find joy in making things, experiencing the creative process, and enjoying the results. I look forward to using these talents throughout my life. I’m thankful for my family. My parents raised me and my siblings to love one another. Of course this wasn’t apparent while growing up. Yet, now as adults we enjoy one another as friends. I look forward to seeing my sister (in Michigan) and brother (in Seattle) over the holidays. Thanks goodness for airlines.
I’m thankful for my job. I work with good people. For the most part, I enjoy the work I do. Right now the company is doing well, despite the global economic challenges. And really, this makes a huge difference in my life. I know being unemployed is a huge emotional and financial drain.
With this feeling of gratitude, I embrace the holiday season. I look forward to celebrating with friends and family over the next month. It’s a source of true joy.
