Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 5
This quote spoke to me today. This is what I am hoping to achieve... a spirit of thanksgiving that is becoming. Goals are good. Today I am thankful that I feel better... well enough to go help at school, teach a bunch of lessons, and make dinner. I am thankful for my voice students. Not… Continue reading Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 5
Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 4
Today, as I studied 2 Nephi 4 for my scripture study, I was reminded of two important principles. First of all, I must say how beautiful this chapter truly is. I love the great list of qualities of the Savior it provides. As I read I was reminded of how thankful I was for each… Continue reading Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 4
Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 3
Today is my 29th anniversary. So far it has been rather peaceful and uneventful. My kids are off on an adventure at the coast, Kimber and Ray are watching TV with their kids, and John is off working on a Christmas project. I have been eating leftovers and watching a movie in my room. I… Continue reading Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 3
Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 2
Today I am not feeling myself. I have a cold from the fast paced life of go, go, go I live and I am now being forced to take a day of rest. I think my body has got my attention now. To rest means to cease from a particular activity. I know that rest… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 2
Developing and Attitude of Gratitude – Day 1
Let's be thankful to God 365 day in a row. Join me in thanking God when the sun shines down on us and when we find ourselves weathering the storms of life. Let us thank Him for all His goodness in the good times and in the hard times. Let's thank Him when He strengthens us and when He restores peace. Join me for the next year as I ponder on all of His goodness, tender mercies and blessing - large and small - that He showers on our lives each day.
365 Days of kindness

I've learned a few things about myself and about kindness along my journey: Kindness… Continue reading 365 Days of kindness
#bethelight – Day 362 and 363
Yesterday was a rough day. To be honest. nothing really went well from the beginning of the day. To get through the day I needed to learn to re-frame my perception... change my perspective. Sometime we make choices that are not the best. Sometime circumstances are not the best. Rather than allowing regret to take… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 362 and 363
#bethelight – day 361
I was thinking this morning how awkward and embarrassing I often am in social situations. No wonder my teens laugh at me. Then I was thinking of some of the "miss-fits" I work with in the theatre. It dawned on me... rescuing a wallflower is an act of kindness. At our cast party over the… Continue reading #bethelight – day 361
#bethelight – Day 360
It's hard to believe I've been doing this whole "spread kindness" kick for nearly a year. I have decided that KINDNESS is just common sense. All you really have to do is think about what people really need; think outside your own desires and selfishness. Sometimes it's a lack of funds that keep people from… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 360
