June Joy Dare
Sorry this is a couple days late. My nieces spent a long weekend with us, and we were busy making memories and enjoying the daily adventures of life. I hope you take time to build precious memories with your loved ones, as well.

Weekend Challenge
Weekend challenge: Enjoy something of nature this weekend....a walk outside; listen to the birds sing; go sit by a lake, river, stream, or ocean and just be quiet; take in a sunrise and/or sunset; go geocaching; take a bike ride.
While taking in nature, leave your phone and electronic devices alone! Turn them off, don't take them with you. Experience REAL LIFE, not virtual life.
If you take the challenge, share here what you did.

30 Day Challenge
As I finish up the 30 days of thanks, having missed a couple days because I have been spending the time with family, I want to challenge each one reading this to live a life of gratitude and thanks each day. Look for the gifts around you, and be thankful. A life of gratitude makes the heart be filled with joy. It puts our focus on the good in life, not the bad. I am not saying to live in a false reality and pretend tough times aren't happening when they do. I am just challenging each one of us to find a daily gift, a small joy, to see the blessings in life despite the difficulties we all face.

Ask Yourself These Questions
While I focus a lot on what I am grateful for each day, I had the question pop in front of my face tonight of 'what did you do today to show you were thankful for your blessings?' The question made me stop and think. How did I live it out, make it apparent, show the world I came in contact with today that I was thankful? What did I do that showed the world that living a life of thankfulness and gratitude makes a difference in my day to day attitude and choices, in how I see the world, in how I live?
Want to focus on changing the world with a grateful heart? Ask yourself these questions each day.

Gifts For Today
A gift silent, a gift still, a gift strong.
Silent leaves tumbling to the ground and dancing across the landscape. The stillness in a lake, calm and peaceful. Strong coffee.

Gifts For Today
Gifts for Today
Find 3 things undervalued or overlooked.
Time is undervalued, as we waste a lot of it doing meaningless things when time is truly precious.
Face to face relationships are overlooked and undervalued. Nothing can replace sitting with someone and talking face to face, seeing emotions, sharing a laugh or tears.
Rest is both overlooked and undervalued in our overly busy world. We need to take time to rest, and disconnect from technology every day. Our bodies and minds are tired, exhausted, and need to be refueled and still.
