Gratituesday was born out of the idea that amid the chaos and craziness that ensues during the course of ending the A it is so important to recognize the GOOD, the IMPROVED, the BLESSINGS that exist in our lives despite our bad behavior no matter how small, or how insignificant it may seem.

Good morning Lolly

I live for your Gratituesdays. Today's is wonderful and right on target. Thank you so much. I too have been trying so hard to see what I need to make me happy inside, to make me beautiful on the inside.

I have to tell you, after reading your synopsis last week, my new mantra is "If Lolly can do it, so can I"

You are an inspiration. So strong! So resilient.

Have a wonderful day

Awakening

Lolly, I love your story about your mum's beautiful blue bicycle!

Today I am grateful that my friends and colleagues in Christchurch survived yesterday's devastating earthquake, and I grateful for the generosity of those who have donated blood, opened their home to strangers, stayed up all night caring for the wounded in triage centres, risked their own safety to keep essential services going. Bless you all. (I am also grateful that x has not used this disaster as an excuse to break NC and pull me back into the A as he did during the last Christchurch earthquake. This time my focus is squarely where it should be, and where it should always have been, on those people close to me who have suffered and lost so much.)
