Good day, my Sister! I am savoring this moment :)
to have experience of : taste
b : to taste or smell with pleasure : relish
c : to delight in : enjoy
Thank you! oh your beautiful list is a reflection of beautiful you! :}
i could no sooner choose a favorite gratitude here than to choose a favorite star in His heavens (typed with Drew Barrymore's accent in Ever After :)
each and every counting a gift over and again to me...
i do have a particular appreciation for this:
the good thing about being sick is that you get to rest
what a terrific counting. J & I were talking last night about pressure from the world to push through the sickness, to 'man up' and 'keep on keeping on'
so often we do not properly take care of ourselves b/c we do not want to take the shaming from others for resting & healing - even when it is what is in our best interest. as so many things in life - - we are shamed & thought less of, jokingly(or not) made fun of, etc. for doing the 'right' thing.
i am thankful that rest is the pathway chosen there :)
be bold, be brave, be you :]
my love and my prayers as the counting continues.

I love your list dear one! And it is OK to not always have the answers.... to be uncertain of what the right answer is. Isn't that the place so many of us find ourselves, at least sometimes?
I read your post on savoring. I tried to leave a comment, but it acted up for some reason. Anyway, I loved it. The list of thanks is indeed transformational, yes? And you can't hardly describe it to someone... it
is something each person has to experience for themself to really believe, I think.
I'm so glad you are counting with us Kim. So, so glad!
Love you,
Kara
