Be grateful for the little things.

The gift of life, family, friends, sound mind, imagination & dreams.

A few weeks ago, a friend helped list out some of the blessings I've experienced that I'd failed to acknowledge because I keep focusing on some things I've not yet experienced in my life.

Count your blessings, name them one by one
Count your blessings, see what God has done
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done

So what are you grateful for?

I believed wrongly that since others had already gone ahead of me, I couldn't possibly offer anything more.  Until fairly recently, it had become relatively easy and routine to disqualify myself and my desires. I'd hear myself say things like: I can't do it because so and so are already doing it I'm not good enough I'...
