Grateful for:
- Digging in the garden today weeding. Physical work, especially in the garden is not my forte to say the least but it is a great little challenge to commit myself to daily garden work to help my friend with her house and learn a thing or two about the land and myself in the process.
- Playing chase with the dog.
- Zenifying my friend’s kitchen by almost entirely clearing out kitchen surfaces. Ahh, clear spaces and peaceful mind… thank God she did not mind it.
- Having a super zen space assigned to me as my living quarters. Nothing but a bed, chaise lounge chair, table, 2 chairs, my netbook and basket for cables and small stuff. Loving it. Oh yes, and big wall height windows and balcony overlooking the see of green and the ocean.
- Living in a beautiful place surrounded by nature and water, so very much like my ideal life image it is uncanny in its resemblance.
- I love rolling hills with cows dotting them like in a Swiss postcard.
- Getting a Portuguese phone number and unlocking my T-Mobile Droid to work with any mobile provider in any country. Awesomeness.
- Committing to no less than 10 gratitude entries for each day which forces me to recall the day and find things to be grateful for.
- Getting some nice free clothes from my friend.
- Cutting up some fancy travel brochures that yielded lots of inspiring vision scrapbook images.
- Being there for another person.
- I love how great of a listener I am.
