Practicing gratitude and trying to be thankful for all circumstances has heightened my general awareness, particularly of things I have been taking for granted all my life. My eyes being one of them. Or is is two? Regardless, I have gotten into the daily practice of thanking God for opening my eyes to yet another day, and that’s a good tone to wake up to.🙏🏽
Being a morning person, I’ve always felt lucky to be privy to seeing sights sleeping souls will never know: the night sky, for example. 🙏🏽 This is one of the reasons I don’t mind taking our pups outside to pee at o’dark:30.
This very morning though, my timing must’ve been right, because I saw a pre-dawn delight! 🙏🏽Timing really is everything, especially with everything in the sky
My eyesight has never been good. Eyeglasses, hard contacts, soft contacts, lasik—my eyes have had all types of correction.🙏🏽 My vision is poor and getting worse by the day it seems, but even so, my eyes are healthy.🙏🏽 Now I’m wearing TRI-focals (sometimes) and I’m grateful for them.🙏🏽 The worse my vision gets, the more I appreciate my eyes.🙏🏽
In gratitude I walk in an awareness and wonder of God’s creations, and that’s affected my focus. I pay attention to what’s around me more than I used to, 🙏🏽 and I discovered that it isn’t just snowflakes that are all somehow different—NO two things are identical! God is so amazing.
He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. ~Job 9:10
