This blog is inspired by Leah Dieterich’s blog , which I found thanks to Seth Barnes. I think it is a great way to practice thankfulness for ALL things in life, good or bad. So here is to the lighter side of thankfulness…
Dear four inch flying roach,
Thank you for not landing on me even though you were on a trajectory that seemed aimed in my direction. You, and your other family members, have helped assure me that my reaction time is still decent. You also make me thankful I am not in a country where you will be served on a plate for supper.
Sincerely,
Steph
Dear gummy vitamins,
Thank you for making it so that staying healthier is also fun and candy-like. I’m a big fan.
Yours truly,
Steph
Dear school loans,
Thank you for teaching me perseverance since my goal of paying you off seems to be about 25 years away. Thank you for also constantly reminding me that God is my provider and also for helping me learn to not make rash financial decisions.
Cheers,
Steph
Dear jelly fish that stung me,
You make me appreciate the need for personal space. I completely understand now and am sorry for intruding. Thank you also for leaving me a nice little reminder of our encounter. I have thought of you every day since. Thank you that I can also say I took on a jelly, but I concede that you won.
XO,
Steph
Dear Starbucks Via,
Thank you for helping jump start my day so people who have to meet with me every morning will still like me.
All my love,
Steph
