As another busy week comes to a close I am reminded of the many wonderful things to be grateful for. But the two things in particular I am grateful for this week are health and meditation.
I have noticed over the last few weeks many more posts on Facebook of friends describing various health concerns and issues they are going through. I have seen everything from blood clots and seizures to a case of meningitis in a dear friends baby girl that was just born. In the moments I have read these messages I am reminded that this cold I have been fighting all week is nothing more than a mere annoyance and that it could be worse. I also take a moment to send healing thoughts and say a prayer for those in need at the moment. For my current health and the health of my family, I am so grateful.
I am also grateful for my moments of meditation each day. I am finding that these moments of quiet help me to ground myself and mentally prepare for the day ahead. I am calmer and generally more centered and the result is a happier day. I am anxious to see how this continued practice will effect my life.
May you all have a lovely weekend and find many things to be grateful for.
