I really don't do this enough....
As I was cleaning my house yesterday, and I looked around at our decor, I felt overwhelming gratitude. I decided to start a list of what I LOVE about "Us" Being my family. I love that we love to work. I love that we don't have to spend a ton of money to have nice things. I love the joy we feel in creating something new. Especially on the cheap. I love that I cook meals and breads and goodies from scratch. I love that we are careful with our money. I love how we get our sense of accomplishment from doing something ourselves, not just having sufficient money to hire someone to do it for us.
I am so excited to plant my garden in a couple months here. I can't wait to feel the joy that comes from eating our home grown food.
Heavenly Father has granted us so many gifts and talents. I hope to start discovering more and really cultivating them.
Being Idle is an abomination to God. I hope to purge myself of this. I watched WAY to much TV the past 2 days, and I noticed that as I did that I became easily angered, Tired, I had way less energy, and was not in anyway motivated. Funny how inertia works. Its not just a law of physics but also a law of psychology. Every one gets their sense of accomplishment, and worth from different things, these happen to be some of mine....What are yours?
