30 Days + of Gratitude ~ Day 22

1. I am grateful for my memory being jogged.  Here I am at Day 22 with this Gratitude Project, and I was so focused on getting to bed for tomorrow's early-morning wake-up-call to drive to New Mexico that I nearly forgot about making today's entry.  This tells me a couple of things...I'm good with discipline around new things in a solid way for at least 20 days until it takes more precision with my focus to carry it further.  I also notice I don't have any judgment about that.  It's just a noticing, and an opportunity I feel for more expansion and embodiment of my intentions.
2. I am grateful for Steve Ross at Maha Yoga.  Your humor makes room for things to reveal more deeply without getting caught on the edges of egoic seriousness in the midst of a blissful freefall.
3. I am grateful for toast!  Yes, toast!  I love toast!  I love how it smells while it's cooking, I love watching the butter melt on it, I love how it tastes, and I love how satisfied I feel after I eat it.  There, I said it, I am now and out-of-the-closet toast eater.  I can now eat toast proudly and openly amongst all people, even non-toast-eating-people.
4. I am grateful for satsumas...these little orange delights are like Santa, they only come once a year...but when they do, they deliver the perfect balance of sweet and sour...and one of the best parts?  They peel sooooo easily that they practically peel themselves!  A little bit of sunshine and vitamin C to boot :)
5. I am grateful for Shri Kundalini Shakti!  She reveals and reveals and reveals...it just keeps going deeper!

30 Days + of Gratitude ~ Day 11

1. I'm grateful to Linda Casto for inviting me to my first performance of the Gay Men's Chorus.  They did this awesome and hilarious rendition of the Nutcracker (though I haven't ever seen the Nutcracker).  Got me in the Holiday spirit...
2. I'm grateful for the nectar still flowing through my Heart from chanting with Steve Ross at Maha Yoga tonight.
3. I'm grateful for this week of warm, sunny weather.  While I have a whole romantic relationship to colder weather, everything softens more in me in warmer weather.  
4. I'm grateful for friendships that weather time, storms, relationship changes, and so so many things...revealing the profound love and joy we share between us.  You all know who you are, thank you!  Some of you might not...yet ;)
5. I'm grateful for confidence.  Not that it's ever a done deal, always expanding, a deep expression of Trust itself....nonetheless, uber grateful for the palpable depth I keep seeing in my own.
