#539: No Reason (Friday, April 28)

"Love is...no reason.

When you love someone for a reason and that reason disappears, so does the love."

This week, I'm most thankful for those who love me without a reason.

#538: Are You Ok?

A lot of crazy things happened in the world this week. That, added to the ongoing personal struggles we each face daily, can make it difficult to cope. It's good to know that there are people who care enough to call and simply say, "Are you ok?"

That's what I'm most grateful for this week - those who think to ask the question with an open, non-judgemental heart - and those who answer it in the same way.

#537: A Sense of Purpose (Friday, April 14)

If you're Christian, you know that Good Friday is the day that Jesus was mocked and beaten in the streets.

Why would he endure that? Why wouldn't he run and hide, knowing the fate that awaited him, especially if he was innocent? Well, because he knew he had a greater purpose.

Why are you here? What is your purpose in this life?

This week, I'm grateful that I have a purpose and a plan. I'm thankful that I have dreams and things that I aspire to. There are so many who are just blowing with the wind.

#536: The Appearance of Things (Friday, April 7)

“The appearance of things changes according to the emotions; and thus we see magic and beauty in them, while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves.” - Kahlil Gibran


This week, I'm most grateful that I was raised to be unconcerned about appearances, about how things look - but rather to go with how it makes me feel.
