I recently found a journal that I kept for awhile a few years back, before blogging! It's called "The Simple Abundance Journal of Gratitude". (by Sarah Ban Breathnach) I think there was a book that went with it too. I was reading it and decided that every once in awhile, I'll just put some little thing that makes me smile or I'm grateful for on a little sticky note. So when you see these stickies, that's what it is; my gratitude notes.
See, just a tinny post.Have a great day too.

I love this book and reread it often. I have enjoyed my visit to your blog. Happy Pink Saturday and have a wonderful new week.
ReplyDeleteI am grateful for you and your blog. Also for your daughter's amazingly beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, thanks Lori : )) Right back at ya!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Shirley!
ReplyDeleteI have Simple Abundance and enjoyed reading it too. I think I also have the Gratitude Journal somewhere but don't think I really kept up on my entries. Good idea putting post-its on here. I so enjoy reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the tiniest ones are the most powerful. I had a literature/writing professor ask me to consider, whenever I wanted to add intensifiers to something I was writing, which of the following two phrases is stronger: (1) I love you; (2) I love you very much. I submit that often an "intensifier" simply weakens. Blessings on a beautiful (at least, here) Sunday!
ReplyDeleteLittle thoughts, simple smiles . . . when you come to realize these are the things that truly matter and made your day :-)

(seeing you pink post made me miss cross stitching :-), I also like the pink pillow - - - very sweet)
Hello Shirley,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your nice comment on my blog.
I absolutely adore your house. It is so sweet and lovely.
I actually have a copy of the book, Simple Abundance. I refer to it every now and then. I also leave it by the bedside of our overnight guests because it is easy to read in small snippets.
I am thoroughly enjoying your blog.
Best regards,
Joanne
