Fifteen to One.

Fifteen and counting, 15 tasks before 9 am. That's when most folks start work in America. How many tasks do you complete prior to the morning time start? Breathe. Yes, take a breath, and when you exhale, think I did it! I did 15, well, more or less, what does it matter, you made the 9 o'clock relief station, work (for some of you!). One of my sweet grandmothers, now heavenly at home, once said when she reached her golden age, "You would think that I would not be busy, but every day there is something else to do." How is it for you? Whether you are employed, unemployed, studenting (is this a word?), a stay-at-home mom or dad, or in a type of retirement, or disability, life brings lots of new challenges, each and every day. After taking another breath, exhale and think again, I did it! Maybe it was the task of waking up and getting out of bed today, just the start of your daily marathon. When you exhale next, pat yourself on the back for the 1 thing you did today. This is called gratitude.
