Our garden is amazing. Last week the tomato production started and the salads and pasta dishes are incredible – who knew a fresh picked tomato could make my day.
As each week passes this summer, it seems I’m easier to please. It takes less to make my day. And often it’s the littlest things that give me such gratification that just the awareness of it feels like a prayer. Perhaps having gratitude is a prayer. Never thought of it that way before. Perhaps every time we acknowledge what is good about the day, what we feel pleasure about, when we compliment another person or express our love for them it’s a prayer. I like that.
What a great motivation to keep thanking my Higher Power for even the littlest things throughout my day. It’s a habit for me now anyway, and this new awareness of these statements as prayers makes me smile. See – new awarenesses come to us out of nowhere, unexpected and unannounced. This is what keeps my mind open, my perspective fresh and my attitude in gratitude and anticipation. Thank You God.
