Some Things I Have Learned

I have been trying to recognize and be grateful daily for the abundance in my life. My husband Greg and I live on a 12 acre slice of heaven with a yellow brick house and an old style foundation barn that provides us many reminders. Starting in early spring with the daffodil, iris and tulip bloom heading into summer with the poppies, daisies, peonies, and sunflowers, the amount of color here is tremendous. I love the feeling of having just picked my fruit trees and thinking of how much we will appreciate all they had to offer come December when is is cold and snowy outside. (Cherries, Mulberries, Peaches, Apples, and Concord Grapes) The "Garden Harvest" is pretty amazing as well; peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage, squash, egg plant, etc. These are easy physical daily reminders of the abundance I have all around me. How about the non-physical like love? I have so many special people in my life starting with my husband and family and expanding to my friends, neighbors, and co-workers. I can't leave out my 4 legged friends and wildlife that surround me. They bring me so much love and joy. On my "pity party days" I need to remember and acknowledge all the abundance around me. What abundance surrounds you?
