Pat Yourself on the Back

Have you given yourself a proverbial “pat on the back” today? Take a minute to think about how strong you are. Take a second to think proactively about your day. I say this because I’m sitting here like a bump on a log, watching an episode of Heartland (great show -setting on a Canadian ranch). I know there’s nothing wrong with downtime but I’d rather be up and running around with boundless energy. I’m tempted to think about what I’m not instead of the joy of the day; what is in the present. Gratitude and hope, well, these things are about what is right here in the moment-a beautiful breeze, an amazing sunset and a comfortable spot to call home.

You’ve made it to evening. You survived. Pat yourself on the back. 😉
