“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more.
It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal
into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our
past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
~Melody Beattie
In the name of gratitude and truthfulness I’ve decided to post a little piece of reality here once a week. Likely just a single picture. See my original post here.
If you’d like to join in with a reality check of your own, please add a link or note in the comments.
I’m grateful that the little feet in this house are warm.
* I found the quote above on Deb’s lovely blog – it said just what I was trying to say. Thanks, Deb!
hehe…..I see this post just after I picked up about 20 little socks off the floor and had to hunt down a new pair for Abi three times today!
I love love love that quote!! Had many reality checks this weekend. I should have posted this, but the pic on my post today of my daughter on the turtle shell? That was a meltdown in process from not being to buy something at the gift shop. The silver lining to that moment? Her saying “sorry mommy, I was just soooo tempted.” :).
What a great quote! So true about if we just looked at things a little differently, everything would always be rosier 🙂
What a lovely lovely quote. I’ll have to search out the author.
I needed to be reminded of that 🙂
