During the beginning of every year, I always begin to contemplate how I will enhance my life during Lent or make some type of a sacrifice. One year I gave up meat; another year I tried to read five books in 40 days and most recently, I gave up alcohol, which wasn’t that much fun. This year, I decided that instead of ‘giving up’ something, I would choose something that would enhance my life and cause me to think of all of the things I should be happy about in my life…thankful. So, I came up with the idea to keep a gratitude journal for 40 days. Everyday, I would write five things that I am grateful for and let it soak in and be really content with everything for which I have been blessed.
Well…
Life happened and I sort of didn’t fulfill my promise to keep this said gratitude journal. In my defense, I was planning a wedding, got married, went out of town and had a huge fundraiser for work…blah blah blah. Even though I didn’t quite complete my task, today, I’m sharing 5 things that I’m thankful for currently…
