Today was just like yesterday. I woke up feeling good and I woke up early time I changed up my routine. I decided that I wanted to take a shower before I went to Starbucks. When I got in the shower I started thinking of how good it felt to take a shower in the early AM. I was thinking about those that didn't have a shower and I just thanked God for giving me the opportunity to be able to take a nice hot shower on a cool morning.
We take the little things in life that mean a lot for granted. Things like showers, and hot meals and loved ones. All of these are of importance but we don't treat them as they are. We never take time to just enjoy them. Every year around the holidays, I get excited. Not because you get days off from work or because of the gift giving and food. I get excited because of the time that I get to spend with my family. Its a joy to see my loved ones come together under the same roof. When we are all together, I take a few moments to myself and just look at everyone when no one is paying me any attention. This is my way of taking a mental picture of the happiest moments of my life
When I started this revitalization it was mainly for exercising. But what I have come to learn is that the mind needs to be exercised just as well.
Take the time to enjoy the small things in life that have a big impact on it. Don't spend all of your time focusing on what you don't have, but rather what you do have and the happiness that it brings. You will be amazed at what happens to the things that you are worrying about, truly amazed!
