What better day to start a no-paper Gratitude Journal than this Canadian Thanksgiving?ย I do love putting pen to real paper and handwriting my journals. But God knows I already have so many journals and notebooks. And I barely have space for the old ones, let alone for any new journals. So, let’s see how the online journaling goes here. I have this blog. Might as well get full use out of it right? And like it says, Scribble It Down. Here goes!
Gratitude Journal- Day 1- October 10th, 2016
โ The crazy cawing of what sounded like a million crows waking me this morning. I am happy to say that I have actually come to appreciate crows over the past few months. And I now have a completely new and more compassionate view of them. They are actually quite caring and emotional themselves.
โ The beautiful view from my balcony- the firehall and trees and quaint neighborhood streets make me feel like I am in a little town that is safe and at times, magical.
โ Memories of Kizomba last night. I am so glad I went out. Also got to experience a short lived- but worth it- Kizomba Krush! Only lasted 4 minutes or so and then the feeling was gone. Haha! But oh, what a feeling it was ๐
โ Listening to the mindfulness CD by Michelle Morrison again before going to sleep last night. Or maybe I fell asleep in the middle of it. Either way, it was soothing and calmed me a little as it played in the background.
โ Living in a space on my own. It’s small but it’s all mine. I love the freedom that it instills in my head and heart. I know every corner of this little place because I arranged everything in it the way I wanted.
โ My mom, my mom, my mom. You will always be my number one reason to be grateful, Mommy. โกโกโก
