I don't know why it's easy for me to sometimes be happy or cheerful when things aren't necessarily that way, but I find that is my general state, and I'm thankful for it. Sometimes I'm amazed by the multiplicity of my blessings. I understand from Facebook peoples, that November is Gratitude month - big surprise, lol. So, I'm expressing my gratitude. I have been richly blessed my life, and I know it's all due to the Lord's hand in my life.
This is the main reason for all my current blessings...this wonderful man who loves me and wants to spend his life with me. He's such a cutie!!
All of these blessings started in one place...the Temple of the Lord. He has so richly blessed me.
I hope that you are able to count your blessings today so that you can see the depth of Heavenly Father's love for you. Even if it's just the fact that you are alive when so many are dying... Or if you have food when others are starving. Do you have family? Do you have close friends? Do you have electricity and running water? The blessing of eyesight or hearing? The ability to read and see the world around you?? This is my favorite time of the year. I love fall. I've probably expressed that before, lol. But I do. The richness of the colors, the amazing variety of the color in the trees. It's amazing. To me, it's just another testament to the creations of a loving Heavenly Father. He knew that we would desire color and variety in our lives.
So - for those of you who need a little brightenss this morning, I'm sharing one of my favorite music videos, that you've seen on here several times, by the Piano Guys.
and then some fun thoughts:
Today is National Doughnut Day - again?? I guess there are various different ways to celebrate doughnuts. Last week was Buy a Doughnut...this week is doughnut day. I like doughnuts! I think I'll bake some this time though... :)
It's also Fill your stapler day - heaven only knows what it would be like if you didn't have someone reminding you to fill your stapler, right?? I mean...if I only had to fill it once a year?? that would be amazing! (I know...sarcasm reigneth...)
It's National Play Monopoly Day - and if we didn't have work tomorrow, that would be fun. Does it always take hours when you play?? UGH. I've gotten to where I just don't like to play because my hubby always wins and I'm always broke. ;) At least we have a cute Peanut's version though... How many different sets do you have?? I think we have Peanuts, original and Lord of the Rings...
So - hopefully you can find the blessings in your life - something that makes you happy and smile on this gorgeous fall day. I know I have. Take care!
