Grateful

When it comes to life the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude. 

— G.K. Chesterton

Hem Your Blessings With Thankfulness

 Hem your blessings with thankfulness 

so they don't unravel.

Thankful for the Berries

We pray for the big things 
and forget to give thanks for the ordinary, 
small (and yet really not small) gifts. 

- Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Thankful for the berries and the trees that produce those berries.  Without those trees and berries, I wouldn't be able to watch the beautiful birds that visit.

Every day is a day to be thankful. Life's abundance has no limit, and gratitude is what keeps that abundance flowing. In every circumstance there is something for which to be thankful. Even when there seems to be nothing else, there is hope.

MY LITTLE CHICKADEE

There is always, always, always something to be thankful for.

 The chickadees visit the feeder on our deck. These birds are QUICK! They flit here and there unbelievably fast.  Carolina Chickadees and Black-capped Chickadees look very much alike but I'm pretty sure this is a Carolina Chickadee.
