Day 108 of Thanksgiving....

108/257

Today I am so very Thankful for Answered Prayers! I heard a quote last week that has really stuck with me...there are more tears shed for answered prayers than unanswered ones. I have found this to be so true - sometimes we don't know what we are praying for and don't realize that what we believe we want and need is not in the plan for our lives. No matter your beliefs, we all have wishes and dreams and sometimes in life we have a small dream that is so important to our hearts and when those dreams are realized, we are so very thankful. As the old saying goes - Be careful what you pray for.... Many times prayers have been answered - with a different answer than anticipated....but answered all the same.

Days

1/364 For years I worked in an office at a desk and one of the company supplied tools was a desk calendar. It was the kind with one page for each day and at the end of the day, that page would be torn off. In the bottom right corner of the page were two numbers with a slash between them. I was fascinated with these numbers - they represented the numerical place that day held in the 365 days of the year. Simple math but awesome to me. For the purpose of this blog I will do my best to use that representation to note 365 Days of Thanksgiving. I have tried this many times in journals but have always failed and let it fall by the wayside. I am hoping by creating this blog and posting it on FaceBook that I will have the organization and forethought to keep it going. I also hope this practice will allow me to keep things in perspective and realize the true joy in life and focus on that each and every day. So hear goes.....
