Thankful Thursday Contemplations on Gratitude
Thursday, February 22, 2018
The "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's ParadiseOpen in new Window. prompt for Day 1528
"There is one difference between a long life and a great dinner, in the dinner, the sweet things come last." Audrey Hepburn Do you agree with this?

Life is a great meal,
ascent into next world
is the sweet reward.

Gratitude is one of the things on the material plane that makes life a great meal. Sometimes the servings may not bet to our liking or event what we want, but they come into our lives to feed our souls. The courses of life's meal are intended to strength our spirits by helping to develop the spiritual attributes our souls need to prosper in the realm of paradise.

The "Blogging Circle of Friends Open in new Window. prompt for DAY 1925
Use these words in your entry today, have fun! embroider, perceptions. define, aroma. youthful, and betrayal.

The aroma of sunrise
flows through my mind,
and ascends into my spirit.

Gratitude embroiders itself
on the tapestry of morning.

I give praise,
and supplicate forgiveness
for guilt's betrayal.

Intoning gratitude
changes my selfish perceptions,
and turns my mind's eye
to the All-Glorious Beloved.

A youthful vitality returns,
transforming fear into courage
and doubt into certitude.

Meanings change,
and connotations are rewritten:
I now define
tests and difficulties
as blessings in disguise.
