Heaven on Earth

I've neglected my word focus for the year THANKFUL so today is a tribute to it and all the bits of HEAVEN I find on EARTH:

• cool mornings in June after brutally hot ones


• the sun's golden hue on everything in its path


• God's good graces


• a loving faithful husband who still loves me after 27 years (28 soon)


• a smart hardworking kind son who calls everyday


• dear parents who taught me right from wrong and still are my best role models


• creative time every day to make art


• neighbors on whom you can depend when a favor is needed


• friends too many to number who never give up on me


• inspiring words of God through The Bible


• email buddies I've never met but continue to support, encourage and inspire me


• prayer warriors of all ages


• church family who care about me


• freedom to be just me


• good books and movies to escape with


• trips to Kiawah (beach) or the mountains, with views that put a whole new perspective on life and living


• backyard retreats with my journal and Bible where I find peace and serenity


• 52 years of privileges


• this blog where I can share my true self, good and bad
