Eucharisteo - the daily pursuit to recognize His blessings

My dear friend Laura gave me this journal after I read "One Thousand Gifts" by Ann VosKamp. After getting a cup of coffee, this is the first thing I do every morning. I started this in March of 2011 and am happy to report that I have recorded over 1200 things that I am thankful for. Today, I am thankful for all of the men and women who gave their lives for my freedom. Happy Memorial Day!

Awwww, I love this! I'm impressed that you've passed 1000 already. You are good at gratitude! :)

So much better than whinging - we should all be grateful for so many things. Thanks for the reminder.

You are very good to have kept up your journal. In the past I have always found it very hard to continue with a committment like that, though 365 is making it much easier for me. I have found a wonderful community and lovely friends.

That's a lot of blessings! That book came to me at a time in my life (after Mom had just died) when I really needed to remind myself to see the beauty and the positive in life/the world. I was also starting my photography and to me, each day I post anything on here that is a blessing I am recording...another day lived surrounded by such amazing beauty!
