Although I have not written them down on here, my blessings continue to flow
The opportunity to gain full-time employment and health insurance
The chance to see family and friends
Welcoming family into my home for short and long stays
Quiet moments in the middle of life's stormy moments
Necessities of life in abundance
Many helpful family members, friends and co-workers
Love surrounding me
Faith
A new year full of hope with the coming of a granddaughter in the spring
Quiet Morning Blessing
Summer is upon us at the Jersey shore. With birds beginning to sing outside, I turn
over deciding whether it is too early to wake up.
Because there is company staying and sleeping on the couch,
I put off making my coffee for a bit but decide that I should be awake after
getting a good night sleep.
Scrolling through Facebook, I say a prayer for people whose
post reveal they are having difficulties.
The air conditioner hums as I am acutely aware that I am privileged
during the heat wave to own one.
The day is mine to decide what to do since I will be working
this weekend, I have a Friday off.
There are a few family situations I became aware of – one happy,
one heart-breaking….I will strive to participate in these with a caring
attitude.
My heart if full. I am blessed to begin a new day.
