When I was at my dad’s recently, I saw some Mindful cards my momma had bought one of us for Christmas. As I went through the cards, one in particular caught my eye.
It said:
“Put your hand on your heart and feel your own heartbeat.”
Say what?
That would mean slowing down enough to actually notice this amazing thing we have in our chests.
I tried it.
It instantly shifted my perspective on what a miracle a heart is and because of its work, what a miracle I am. We are.
My grateful list today is to offer somewhat of a ‘standing ovation’ to some parts of this body that keep me going, but tend to get taken for granted a bit. A ‘thank you’ so to speak.
Gratitude:
- a heart that beats
- eyes that see
- ears that hear
- liver that does many jobs
- kidneys that flush
- adrenals that handle hormones
- brain that gives movements, memories, thoughts, and functioning
- taste buds
- nose that smells
- skin that glows
- hair that grows
- lungs that breathe

Hope you have a great day!
