Yes…I do think it’s important to be thankful for health. When
I get sick, I sure notice the difference in my life. Motivation to do the usual
is really lacking when I’m sick.
Speaking of motivation, a couple of days after I wrote the
blog about being grateful, I decided my monthly neighborhood trash pickup
needed to be done. The weather was cold, dinner would be a little later
than usual if I started right away…I had a number of excuses for why I couldn’t
do the work. But, I ignored my excuses and forced myself out the door with my gloves
and trash bag in hand.Less than an hour later, after finishing my job, I went through my trash searching for recyclable items. It took me that long to move from the “have to do it” way of thinking to an attitude of satisfaction with my accomplishment. My surroundings looked better for my effort. I did something easy to do and made my planet just a little better.
