Dear God,

Every day is a good day for gratitude, a time to pause, reflect and give thanks.  Although life is rarely perfect, it has enough "perfect" in it to bow and give thanks.

What is perfect?  Rain on dry ground.  A harvest moon.  A gentle breeze.  Smiling children.  An empathetic hug.  Enough money to pay the bills.  An understanding employer.  A kind stranger.  The first and last blossom on trees, plants and shrubs.  Snow falling.  Mercy and grace.  A new insight.  Forgiveness.  Breathing clean air and drinking clean water.  Medicine for ailments.  Love.

Thank you,
dearest God,
for much
for which
to give thanks.
Thank you
for so much perfect.
Thank you
for ways
to express gratitude.

Love, Andrea
