In these times when tragedy, disaster, and darkness seem to confront us on an almost daily basis, I invite you to stop for a few moments and reflect with quiet gratitude on the beauty, goodness, and blessings in your life and in our world. Because the light is there.

In no particular order, here is my own gratitude list for this moment in time. I hope that after reading it you’ll go on to write and share your own!
- My husband: his kind words, sincere compliments, and the way he looks at me with wonder and says, “You’re so beautiful.”
- Laughter and silly times with friends.
- Blogging opportunities.
- A bump in sales activity in my online shops.
- Looking forward to a calendar full of fun activities throughout the month of December.
- Finding a friend who is interested in working with me on an exciting creative project for 2016 (stand by for details!).
- Being Canadian – living in a beautiful, safe, peaceful country full of opportunities and benefits.
- That when it comes to dealing with climate change, “Canada is back” and, “We’re here to help.”
- Every moment of life and breath.
Now it’s your turn!
