watching the gratitude.

So I have a bit of internet here this morning. Always a nice treat. Still cannot take that for granted. And as i surf through the nooks and cranny's of the interwebs, I am seeing nice things like pay it forward kind of stuff and people being grateful for the folks in their lives.

Why only now?

Why not year round?

I know that I on some level I really only have today. And I am pretty damn grateful for what I do have (which is more than enough to be honest..) and it's always interesting when others are vocal bout gratitude. My schooling in AA taught me to go to gratitude when things get shitty... and whenever I could muster up a gratitude list I did. And it became more of a constant. Though I am not grateful every minute of every day I do seem to strive for finding those grateful moments. And to see how many times I can use the word grateful or gratitude in this post is actually quite fun!

Truth is.. I love seeing the stuff roll by on twitter about all the goodness people are putting out and receiving this time of year. But my question is... why is it not year round goodness?

Really!

Standing in my 36 degree kitchen in my tiny house (make that 40 degrees) I just want to bask in the goodness that we all have in us. And let that goodness flow..
