I wanted to add some more thoughts on my post from 2 days ago, "30 days of gratitude", because I have more thoughts to post!
I was watching "Rudy" last night on AMC and there was a line in the movie about the secret to being happy is to be grateful for the life you have now and for who you are now . (not in those exact words but you know what I mean)
I posted my piece, "Air" (from the 4 elements series) today because she is giving herself a hug and is truly happy because she believes in herself and she is happy with who she is inside and out. I think one of the most things to be grateful for is for how WE are now. I have been trying to love myself just the way I am everyday and be grateful that I get to have a strong body for doing all the dogwalks that I do everyday and to have the strength to go to the gym afterwards.
As I am writing my 5 pages of gratitude every morning I try and be grateful for as much as I can think of that has to do with my body and my self love. It takes alot of effort but it definately pays off!
Have a wonderful and creative day!
Michelle

Hello from over here! just had to pop by and say what a beautiful, inspiring blog. Love your work . I love too that you write your gratitude pages, i do a very similar thing. Every evening i write down my precious things from my day, (hence the name of my blog), when i need a cup full of happiness i just dip right in & it always works at making my spirits lift. *ruthie*
