What’s something you use every single day, yet forget to be grateful for it?

Today I am grateful for shoes! Its very easy to take them for granted. Especially if you have more than one pair, you have something to be grateful for!

Today I’m grateful for power cords and chargers. Nearly all my devices are battery powered, but the batteries don’t work without a charger!

I’m grateful for the ability to take a breath. Every breath is a gift of life. Every breath is something to be grateful for. And this whole planet has a breathable atmosphere!

Some days, self care means special food!

Today I am grateful for doughnuts! 🍩

I struggle to find time for self care - I received advice to add self care that doesn’t take time - a special food or flavored drink, cologne, or adding music I like into a daily routine. It’s a great step!

Today I’m grateful for globes! Flat maps can really skew the relative size of various countries, and often it’s Greenland that gets very misrepresented!

It used to take hours to travel short distances in some areas before modern roads. Bumpy dirt roads, getting stuck in the mud, or areas that simply had no roads at all.

Today I am grateful for modern good roads! Just think of how our ability to travel has been completely transformed!

I’m so grateful for a bit of cooler weather! Instead of 90-degree evenings (32c), this evening was a nice 72! (22c)

Tonight, one of my boys spouted off a list of things he’s thankful for - apple juice, straws, mugs, and family!

Give me your best tips for work/life balance. I don’t mean stuff like “schedule family time”, but your most unhinged, radical, and effective advice

What is your favorite type of apple, and why is it NOT Red Delicious?

Today I am grateful for the brakes on my car! Where would I be without them??

Today I’m grateful for flowers! They bring so much beauty into our world.

When life is getting tough, stop and smell the roses.

Very nice to have a clock in my pocket all the time. Wait — did history just come full circle from pocket watches to phones??

I’m just trying to get out of the direct sun over here! ☀️ ⛅️ ☁️

I’m grateful for clouds!

Do not let advertising steal your joy!

It’s specifically designed to get you to focus on what you do not have. Instead, take a walk-through of your space, look at the things you have, and think about why they’re special to you! I’d love for you to report back. :)

I absolutely love full moons! Does anyone else just automatically smile every time you see a full moon?

I’ve been thinking this a lot lately! A light breeze can take the edge off of a hot day, and can turn a nice day into a beautiful day!
Today I’m grateful for a light breeze!

Last week, I got to see one of nature’s light shows — huge fields full of lightning bugs and fireflies! As the sky darkened, there were thousands of blinking lights stretching as far as the eye can see! Nature loves to show off! Are we paying attention?

I spent the last few days on my grandpa’s farm (with no cell service), and we had so much fun! We were there while they were putting up hay, so my boys got to ride along while they were baling!

I ran across a real “babbling brook”! Today I am grateful for the sounds of nature, from the babbling brook, to the cicadas in the trees, to bird calls, to the roar of a waterfall! (It was a good day.)

What you focus on grows. It’s backed by science – when you start focusing on the positive, you will see even more positive!

What cool thing happened to you today?

today I’m grateful for boots! 🥾
The right type of footwear for the right job can make a world of difference!

Have you ever thought when your data isn’t working and your next reel doesn’t load, to use that as a five second mindfulness trigger? Take a deep breath, think of one thing you’re grateful for, smile, and maybe your reel is loaded. 🙂

Today I’m grateful for coral reefs! I hope someday I’ll get to see one in person.
