Let us cultivate the gift of gratitude during 2013 whether we are walking the Appalachian Trail or going about our normal daily routines. I'm grateful today for the gift of the Eucharist which I received at mass this morning. I'm also grateful for good health and for my legs and feet that supported me and my 20 lb. pack during an 8 mile walk this afternoon.
Let us remember that our smiles can bring blessings; let gratefulness overflow.
Nunc Coepi "Now I Begin" -- "what was is past, what will be is hidden in the future, and it is only now--this day, this moment--that counts. We can begin fresh each morning if we decide to live our lives that way. The miracle isn't that the chance is there; it always has been there. The miracle is what happens when we reach out to embrace it." From the book Believing in Myself by Earnie Larsen & Carol Hegarty.
