GRATEFUL FOR NOT GIVING UP MY DREAMS

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He has made sure that I have not given up my dreams.

By that I mean, the dreams that I have for myself.......NOT the dreams that I have for other people.  Plainview Meditation believes that those are false dreams and I agree with them.

Today I will summarize the book that I'm reading for The Sports Book Club.  I hope to walk at The Home Depot too.  I have a session at Plainview Meditation.  I also have a dental appointment to check on the tooth that was pulled.

Our date with the young couple...Kevin and Iris was really good.  We definitely will see them again.

I have become realistic about Hilary and have been texting with Izzy.

Thank you Almighty for all the good in my life.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR TAKING CARE OF ME

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has helped me to take care of myself emotionally and physically.

Thank you Almighty for sending Charles into my life because he has become my mentor. Thank you for sending me to Plainview Meditation, a true help in learning to rid myself of false dreams.

I have a list of chores to accomplish SLOWLY.  Life is not a race. Charles and I have a date with Kevin and Iris tonight. It should be fun!

Thank you Almighty for taking care of me.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR LEARNING ABOUT MYSELF

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed me to accept myself, to lear about myself and to make the necessary changes to be at peace.

This happened during the High Holy Days.....Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.  They were both beautiful holidays. They were both very spiritual. I sat in the first row of the synagogue and really prayed. I learned a lot about myself and I woke up much calmer and happy.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A GOOD YOM KIPPUR

I am grateful to the Almighty because today was Yom Kippur and it was not a difficult fast.

I prayed long and hard.

I hope that the Almighty seals me in the book of life and that I have a healthy an happy new year.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR HAVING CHARLES IN MY LIFE

I am beyond grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed Charles to come into my life and my life has been forever changed.

Yesterday after services we went to ROOSEVELT FIELD and FINALLY created the little statue that Freddy had given us as a wedding present.  It is adorable.  We had Japanese food for dinner in the new restaurant in Woodbury.  We made plans for this coming Wednesday with Kevin and Iris, a new young Asian couple that we know from the Fairfield Apartments.

Today Charles sent a text to Hilary confirming plans to see Remi.   We are able to see Remi again because Izzy intervened with Hilary.

Tonight is the beginning of Yom Kippur.  I hope that the fast is an easy one and that the Almighty will bless  me and Charles and my family and friends.

May we be Sealed in The Book of Life.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A BEAUTIFUL SABBATH

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given me a beautiful Sabbath.

Last night I made Sabbath dinner for Charles and me.  Afterwards we sat outside and it was a beautiful evening.

Today I went to services and then FINALLY we both went to Roosevelt Field and posed so that Freddy's wedding gift to us can be made.

Tonight we are going for Japanese food.

I am grateful to the Almighty for all that He does for me.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR THE SABBATH

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given us the Sabbath.

I am truly exhausted after the filming yesterday and all the errands that I have done this week. I am so looking forward to a day of rest.

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has made me strong and resilient.

Thank you.
