Thank You

I am grateful for many things. Sometimes I lose vision and get distracted by the things that are not perfect in my life. Here are a few simple things I am grateful for today.

1) An employer called me today to ask for my help. This means I have built a decent enough relationship for her to think of me!
2) I looked great in my new cream skirt. I felt confident and pretty.
3) I got free lunch today from an employer I networked with at a career fair.
4) The career fair I planned this semester was significantly more successful than many others in the state.
5) I had the opportunity to take a short nap this evening.
6) Tonight my department is getting recognized as a significant contributor to student success.
7) I haven't spent any money today.
8) I wore comfortable and cute shoes all day!
9) My sweet husband drove me to and from work today.
10) I do not have 12 lb. tree trunk warts on my hands or feet. Seriously, have you seen this guy?! Tree Man What a terrible affliction! This makes me grateful for the few pimples I have.

It is good for us all to take regular inventory of all we have to be grateful for. The list is endless yet, it is too easy to dwell on the few things that aren't perfect.

Ditto, what Chico said.

I have learned this esp in school the past few years. I have found I have enjoyed most of my schooling while others, no matter what stage we are in, wish to be in the next. Even though the life of a dental student is complaining, I am glad that I can see the benefits in what we are doing. We have so much to be grateful for in this great country.
