Every day has its own peculiar blessings, if we are alert enough to see them and awake enough to realize that they are blessings. We don't always think about day to day events as being blessings, even though we could and should.
Let's see, it is noon and a gorgeous day here.
I went out for groceries this morning, which was relatively uneventful, other than getting a Greek salad along with the rest of my groceries, which I do every once in a while. I also put some gas in my car and realized that the attendant was still half asleep. But then, it is Saturday morning.
It was cool enough to turn the heat on in the car.
As I was returning home, two old crows hobbled across the street, taking their time about it. I wondered what they were thinking about and am totally convinced that birds think, too. I simply decided to let them take their time and enjoy their morning walk, in spite of traffic behind me.
Just went on Facebook and found a wonderful new photo of my niece and newest great-nephew. That too was a blessing!
Then, I found a note on the blog from another niece, who is a gifted writer. Again, I am blessed.
Do we think blessings when we wake up and look at the world around us? We should.
