Each morning, and often at night as well, when I’m brushing my teeth in my bathroom, I take a moment to feel my daily gratitude. I am reminded because of a canvas I hung at eye level right next to my sink with a beautiful poem on it. Being the nature lover that I am, the words and connections that this poem have made for me, have helped me feel thankful and blessed for the things that I am gifted with each day. The every-growing list includes the people in my life, my comfortable apartment and car, the work that I love to do, travel/luxury, my health, a clean and beautiful living environment, my dog, music, healthy delicious meals, mobility, freedom, my choice, the capacity to think, feel and love, and list goes on….
Enjoy the “Apache Blessing” and share it if you’d like. Or post your daily reminder in a comment below. Have a great idea? Share the wealth.
“Apache Blessing”
May the sun
bring you new energy every day.
May the moon
softly restore you by night.
May the rain
wash away your worries.
May the breeze
blow new strength into your being.
May you walk
gently through the world and know its beauty all the days of your life.

DeAnn Lynn, thanks. I don’t have one thing I use for a gratitude reminder. I try to BE [a la Eckardt Tolle] and from that position experience gratitude for all that a receive and have each day. Thanks for the Blessing you use.
