Gratitude Challenge: Day 4

Gratitude Challenge: Day 4

1) I am grateful for pencils and pens as they are two of the only things that someone needs to express themselves, whether through writing or through drawing. My pen and pencil has been my outlet to express how I feel, to draw when I am bored, and to show the world all the things I cannot always express.

2) I am grateful for the elements as without them, how could we ever survive and for those old enough, how would we ever summon Captain Planet? Earth, wind, fire, water (plus heart) are the essentials to our daily lives. I will be mindful of every step as I can be glad that the ground will catch me as I step and that it is what sustains us; I will continue to close my eyes and enjoy the wind as it blows; I will appreciate that fire has allowed us to better feed ourselves and keep us warm; and I will also be mindful of the preciousness of water and do my best to conserve it and appreciate the fact that we have clean and potable water. I know there are so many people who appreciate the awesomeness and I encourage you all to join me in appreciating them!

3) I am grateful for being surrounded by amazing co-workers and friends both today and in the past (such as Jepsen, Bill, Diana, Holly, Julie and so many more ... sorry, there are way too many amazing people to name ... ugh, I need to name more ... Sue, Allison, Allison, Allison, Gina, Carey, Melissa, Melissa, James, Paul, David, Jonathan, Bill, Adam, Bryan, Stephanie, Marilou, Judy, Jessica, Cindy, Christina ... sorry if I missed you). As I attended our first day of work today, I realized that it did not feel that it was a place I had to be but someplace I wanted to be. It allowed me to better appreciate where I have ended up and has allowed me to see so much good around me. I am excited for what this year and many others ahead hold on our campus as we build our "We Pyramid."
