My eyes opened this morning and I was immediately smiling. I wasn't sure why until I started to pay attention to my thoughts. It is November! November is my favorite month of the year. As a kid I am sure that was because it was my birthday month; however as an adult it is so much more.
I admit, I do love my birthday and I am very spoiled for a full week, yet there is more to November. My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. I love having the family and friends together simply to spend time together. There are no gifts, no cake - just food, fun and laughter. Last year was one of the hardest Thanksgivings I have ever had. I have worked very hard at pushing past that and not allowing it change how I feel about Thanksgiving.
This year a good friend posted on Facebook to post everyday something you are grateful for. I love this idea! I know, it has been happening forever, but after the events last year I want to do this, need to even.
So, my smiling is due to the fact that I already had so many thoughts of things, people, events I am grateful for that I am having to choose what to post each day. Now that is something to be grateful for.
Happy November Everyone!
