quotes from gratefulness.org

I recently started subscribing to the emails from http://www.gratefulness.org/. I like 'em a lot. Here's a couple good ones!

If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought. - Peace Pilgrim

I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable...but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. - Agatha Christie

(Not to mention Agatha Christie is one of my favorite authors. I inherited a love for mysteries from my mom.)

My favorite email subscription is still Notes from the Universe, though, which you can get a taste of in the sidebar. :) They can literally change your life as you know it!! I so look forward to opening them every day and seeing what the Universe wants to tell me today. :) http://www.tut.com/

Mother's Day this year was tough. I didn't get my usual two weeks' prior syndrome; instead, it hit the day of when I was going along, doing fine, and decided to look through some old pictures of my mom and me when I was a baby. Cue the downpour. It was a couple days before I felt back to normal, but then I was fine again. When I went back and looked at the pictures again, I could smile again instead of cry. And such are the ways of grief!
