Thankfulness

Normally, I don't get too much into making a litany of thank-yous and things to be thankful for. It comes off as self-serving and somewhat insincere. However, it is good to be thankful as an attitude, or more accurately to be grateful.
A grateful person is appreciative of the moment and what it has to offer, whether it is a sensory experience or an interaction with someone else that somehow makes your existence better because it happened. This season calls me back to take on that attitude more often and to enjoy the moment, rather than fretting about the future and dwelling on past mistakes.
So, in short, there's lots to be thankful for, but I'm not going to bore you with that. I am grateful for the gifts of the earth, my companions on this life's journey and the ability to savor the moment.

Hmm...better go fishin'
