Attitude of Gratitude

In the busy of every day life, I often take things for granted. Big stuff, little stuff, even important stuff becomes an automatic expectation.  An expectation that I believe will always be there, will always remain the same, forgetting that in a moment of time, it could all be taken away.

I expect the grass to turn green in the Spring, and brown in the Winter.  Sometimes, I expect my husband to know how much I appreciate him.  I forget to thank him and express my gratitude to him for his sense of humor and the security I carry with me each day knowing that he would do anything for me.

Each morning, without a thought, I place my confidence & trust upon him.  He thoughtfully carries their full weight squarely upon his shoulders.

Today, I want to thank my love.   I want to remind him how much I appreciate him, even though I don't express it very often.
