:: 22 days of gratitude ::

I will get it out in the open before I start this little project! I am stealing this idea. I have one friend who wrote a blog for a week, listing 15 things she was grateful for. I have another friend that is doing one of those 30 day photo challenges. So I am combining the two concepts: 22 days of gratitude!

Why 22 days?? Well, cause it is a good even number, and there are 22 days left in April.

Why gratitude? I don't know about you, but the first thing to go when I get frustrated and busy is my attitude of gratitude. I forget how blessed I really am.

So here is my challenge to myself. For the next 22 days, I will post 5 things a day that I am grateful for. Within the next couple months, I will become very busy. Despite the craziness......I want to remain grateful. I want to keep my feet on the ground and my heart filled.

So here is the first five, and I can't guarantee that within the next 22 days I will not repeat a thing or two.

1. I am thankful that I have a job that I love. I never dread going to work! How many people can say that??

2. I am grateful for people who speak life into me.

3. Thankful for spending the day outside in the sun!

4. Grateful for new life.

5. Thankful for the little inspirational sayings on Dove chocolate!
