GRATEFUL FOR PUTTING MY BURDENS DOWN

 I am grateful to the Almighty because this morning in one of my Meditation books, I read about putting your burdens down.

The question then became....why am I carrying these burdens with me?  It's rather Pavlovian that I do this because from earliest times....since I was a child....I have been abused and it's time to lay down that burden which is what I'm now working on by using the breathe to Let Go of That Which Doesn't Serve Me!!!

Yesterday was quite a good day.  I mailed Valentine's Day Cards to my grandkids.   I picked up Matzah's new medication and then walked at The Home Depot.

Charles came over and I made Mahi Mahi for dinner.  It was delicious.   I went to a Sisterhood Meeting too.

Charles left this morning and will be back Saturday afternoon.

Today I cleaned....straightened up too!!!   

I have a periodontal appointment and then hope to walk at The Walt Whitman Mall.

I plan to start my new book and I got my pensions.

Life is good thanks to the Almighty and I intend to make it better by letting go of my burdens.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

 I am grateful to the Almighty because in reading my Meditation Books this morning I learned that I must treat myself with unconditional love.

I must love myself.

I am grateful that I learned this because all through my entire life....I have been abused emotionally and verbally.

It is the Almighty who brought me to understand that I am worthy of love and can love myself unconditionally.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR APPRECIATING MY LIFE

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He has helped me begin to appreciate my life.

This is not to say that early mornings aren't hard with PTSD but I'm moving forward even though the miserable weather doesn't help.

I'm getting reading done.  I'm getting chores done.  I'm speaking to friends and of course Charles.

I'm appreciating my life especially when I watch BBC and all the misery in the world.

Tonight I have a PJC congregation meeting and I'm going.

I am grateful to the Almighty for being there with me always.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A WONDERFUL OVERNIGHT WITH CHARLES

 I am grateful to the Almighty because I had a wonderful overnight with Charles.

He brought in dinner from Uncle Giusseppe's on Saturday night. It was delicious and then we watched a terrific film called The Holdover's.

Sunday also was a wonderful day.  The guys came over to watch 2 football games and I went home.

It was a wonderful overnight.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR TAKING CARE OF ME

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He is taking care of me.

I was going to go to services today BUT i was exhausted and couldn't get up early.  A voice told me that I should sleep and get up later and say my prayers.

That's exactly what I did.  I also read the newspapers and finished the book Sonny.  I will start a new one soon.

I'm off to Charles with Matzah!   Big fun!

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

ENJOY MY LIFE NOW

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He is helping me to enjoy my life NOW!!

From walking at The Home Depot to talking to Karen, Dana and Hilary, to reading the newspapers, I am enjoying each moment of my life.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR BEING IN THE NOW

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He has helped me to live in THE NOW and appreciate it.

Charles just left.  I made a delicious salmon dinner for us last night and this morning we had breakfast together.

The day will be filled with medicinal baths for Matzah, a manicure, walking, reading, cleaning my jewelry and just being.

I am grateful to the Almighty for living in the NOW.

Thank you.
