GRATEFUL FOR EACH NEW DAY

I am grateful to the Almighty for each new day and all that it will bring.

Thank you, Almighty.

GRATEFUL FOR HAPPINESS

I am grateful to the Almighty because I am happy.

Yesterday I took a yoga class and the instructor asked us to focus on an intention. I focused on happiness.

Since I have been retired, I have been happy and I hope that it continues.

Happiness isn't about having everything.  It is about being grateful for the things that you do have.

I am grateful that I will be going to the first seder at PJC.  I am grateful that I have retired and am enjoying what I am doing.

I am grateful for the books that I read and the yoga classes that I take.

Thank you, Almighty for the gift of happiness.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR MY BLESSINGS

I am grateful to the Almighty for all of my blessings.

I am grateful to Him because I have closed the door to the past and live only in the moment.

Today's moment is yoga and Passover preparations.

There is snow on the ground, fresh from last night.

Thank you, Almighty for my blessings.

I am grateful.

GRATITUDE FOR SHANTI

I am grateful to the Almighty for sending me shanti on this cold and snowy Sabbath.

Thank you, Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR MY LIFE

I am grateful to the Almighty for my new retired life.

I am absolutely loving all the wonderful things that I am doing.

I am grateful to the Almighty because my dental checkup was a success and my bonding didn't break.

I was able to read and watch my television program.

I am going to two yoga classes today!!!

Tonight is the Sabbath.  No snow is predicted and I will attend services tomorrow.  Passover preparations are going very well.

I am grateful to the Almighty for my new life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR PERCEPTION

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given me the gift of perception.

I am grounded.  I am strong.   I am able to be calm, and quiet and to understand other people. This has made me calm, cool and collected.

I am having a wonderful week.  Lunch out with new friends, yoga classes, book discussions, watching television shows that I have streamed have been the best.  I have even been able to walk on a few of the days.

The yoga instructors are amazing.  I learn so much from them and it helps me in life.  Today's class for example dealt with loving yourself.

I have even cleaned out boxes of storage that needed to be let go.

Today I have to go to the dentist.  I hope that my bonding doesn't break.

What does he add to this mix?  Discussions on backaches, loose bowel movements,  cancer, death and chores are the topics that I can expect from him.  I forgot silence where in the past, I would ask, "what's wrong" and discover that it was something I did.  Then I had to defend myself.  That's all gone now!!!!!  I forgot the old reliable, calling brokers to buy a new condo.  That's his Spring activity to bait me.

I'm enjoying each day of my very own wonderful new life.

I am grateful for the gift of perception.

Thank you, Almighty.

GRATEFUL THAT I WENT TO YOGA

I am grateful to the Almighty because I went to yoga today.

I heard the most amazing thing:

LET IT GO!!!!!  GO WITH THE FLOW!!

That made so much sense to me especially having to live and work with the Triad.  The instructor talked about not being rigid and going with the flow.  It is true that I did try to create a husband/wife relationship, tried to teach the girls secular and religious values.  I have no guilt about that.  

However, it's time not to force the issue and accept what they are.

LET IT GO!!!  GO WITH THE FLOW!!!

Thank you, Almighty for sending me to this class. 

I am grateful!!
