“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more.

It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal

into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our

past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”

~Melody Beattie

In the name of gratitude and truthfulness I’ve decided to post a little piece of reality here once a week. Likely just a single picture. See my original post here.

what’s left of the plant behind our bed

Today I’m thankful that four and two year olds find ways to amuse themselves while mommy is canning, that this plant hadn’t been watered for a couple of weeks, that a picture was taken for the future time when this would be humorous, and that no adults lost their cool.

If you’d like to join in with a reality check of your own, please add a link or note in the comments!
