40 Gracias

There are 40 days left til 2011.

Lisa Bowden posed a question on Facebook: "what you gonna do with them?"

Lots of things. And one main thing. Say thank you. Show my appreciation. I'm going to find one thing to appreciate everyday. Not hard, no. There are usually hundreds of things to appreciate in a day. But one will do to cultivate a steady practice of gratitude.

Write it, draw it, photograph it, name it. On an index card. Artsy fartsy or simple dimple. I'm not a super duper fabulous painter or illustrator, but I'd like to practice and play.

I'm postomg my "graces" and "thank yous" in the doorway leading into my bedroom. An archway of appreciation. I begin today.

Won't you too?
