Gratitude is Beautiful


The happiest, most well-adjusted people are grateful ones. There is beauty in gratitude.

It's the time of year where we stop and reflect on all we're thankful for. 

Gratitude is such a beautiful trait. I notice it in little kids who are overwhelmed you spent time to play with them or the sweet touch of an elderly woman who understands how short this life is.

Here in the states, we celebrate Thanksgiving tomorrow. We gather together over a big meal with family and loved ones to connect and remember all we're grateful for. I like that Thanksgiving comes before the rush to buy presents. It's important to remember we already have so much.

Being grateful gives us the opportunity to savor what opportunities, and relationships we have the privilege of enjoying. It spurs us to give back.

I hope as you reflect back on all that's happened this year, there will be hidden gems to uncover, remember, and be grateful for. For without gratitude, life is dismal.

On that note, I want to thank you my dear readers. You're an inspiration to me! I love sharing my heart, my life and my wardrobe with you. Your continued support and your precious words always lift my spirits. This little space is my home on the internet and sitting with coffee or tea between us, I hope we meet here for many years to come!

Have a wonderful, grateful week!

Why I'm Grateful for You


Since today is Thanksgiving (in the States), I wanted to share three reasons why I'm grateful for you:

1. You're kindly concerned but not overbearing when I drop off the map for awhile. You make sure I'm okay but you understand that life gets crazy and sometimes we need to step away from the blog. Thank you.

2. You inspire me in the greatest ways with your blogs and comments. Even when I get overwhelmed with life, I still love reading what's going on with you and your thoughts.

3. You make me feel connected to the world in a way I wouldn't be otherwise. It still wows me that we can "know" people from across the world in this tiny land of internet.

Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving, or just a happy day! I'll be celebrating with my family and stuffing my face full of turkey and dressing. Yum.

Thankful for You!

This beautiful arrangement sits in my parent's home.

I am so thankful for each of you sweet souls who come to my blog and take the time to read and interact with me. It means more than I can express. I hope you'll take this offering of gratefulness to heart; you are a great source of beauty in this one simple life.

Happy Thanksgiving!
