Being Grateful


Wind Storms come and go yet leave their mark on the ground.

As running this morning from my house to Semiahmoo Trail and onto Sunny Side trail, Wind Storms left trees lying on our path. Yet it didn’t stop us from running. We completed our 8k run.

As thinking back at the trees lying, makes me think about how anything can happen in a split second. Those trees did not know when or how they would fall. It was their time.

Time is like a river… with each minute, each hour passing by, our story is being written chapters unfolding. Many don’t see what they have in front of them and once it is gone, they realize the gratefulness of having that person, object or thing in their life.

Treasure the moments with your loved ones and tell them what you are grateful for.

One thing I am grateful for is the love that surrounds in my circle . The love of family and friends … with all that is happening around this world, our journey.

I’m grateful for a friend who hadn’t spoken to me in months and out of the blue, she called. I’m grateful for her friendship.
Story to share – As we spoke for a while. She left a footprint in my sand. Reminded me of missing my writing journey. That even though the challenge of participating running a full marathon is far away, it doesn’t mean I should stop writing about running or any other experiences I vision . … So here I am…

I am grateful for her friendship

I wonder what others would be grateful for…

Being grateful for the life we have , the people who surround us and the experiences we create and share with others,

Tell them what you are grateful for before it s late
