And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:
A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH
Please join me in thought-provoking conversaton! Namaste' Cate

As plentiful as the grass that grows ...

As plentiful as the grass that grows,
Or the sand on the shore,
Or the dew on the leaf,
So the blessings of the King of Grace
On every soul that was, that is, or will be.
                   -Traditional Irish Blessing


There are days in which it is so easy to see the blessings that are all around,
and there are days where the blessings seem to be in disguise!
What has changed? 
Simply my view ~ the color of my lens that day ~
the window I am looking through?

There are a couple of views that I know will rob me of
my peace and serenity ....they are
Judging,
Comparing,
or seeking to understand!

When I head into that territory,
I have left acceptance in the dust!

HOW GRATEFUL  I  AM FOR THOSE DAYS
WHEN   I  AM  ABLE  TO  SEE
HOW  PLENTIFUL  IT  IS  THE  GRASS  THAT GROWS !!
