Precious Things In Life

October 8th, 2009

The lessons I’ve learned in life:
I’ve learned to appreciate the small things in life.
The most precious gifts are the ones that don’t cost a cent.
The expensive gifts soon become a part of the distant past

The most precious gift :
The love of my daughter
The love of a daughter doesn’t cost one red cent to me.
It’s the kind of love a mother never forgets

The small things I’ve learned to love are:
Flowers growing in my small, but mighty garden
The sounds of birds laying a nest on my awning
Hummingbirds drinking sugar water from my bird feeder
Dogs chasing each other through the house.
My male dog sneaking up on the female dog to tell her off
My family that loves me uncondtionally

What I’m thankful for the most:
Having life and being able to breathe even on those days I’m in so much pain.
On those days I have to remind myself it’ll pass and repeat the sernity prayer.
