Once upon a time, things were made to serve a purpose. Consider the light bulb, the compass, and the cardiac pacemaker. No doubt necessity was once the mother of invention.

what a beautiful reminder of the power of gratitude. Wonderful job! Recently, Duke University determined the the #1 cause of heart disease is not stress or diet - it is loneliness.
Many of us become so consumed in the frenzied pace of daily living, we forget to stop, smell the roses and take note of those special moments that make each day special- worth living.
I have used the gratitude journal principle for years, and now I have my children come up with 5 things they are grateful for as well. It works!
Keep up the good work, Judith.
Thank you for re-minding us with this beautiful video of all of the true abundance around us- for our Mother, Planet Earth, who quietly supports and sustains us without ever asking for anything in return, and for the gift of human life, with all of its creative potential and freedom of thought ever abiding in our being, just waiting to manifest. How easy it is to not only take these gifts for granted, but to concentrate on that which is not harmonious with them. I was also born in 1942 and still learning to look on the "light" side.
Thank you. I will read this again and again. You are a very wise woman!
