Your writing today reminds me of a phrase from the medieval mystic Meister Eckhart who said something like "If the only prayer you pray in your entire life is 'Thank you', that is enough!"
You are enough. Your life is enough. May there be no fear of debilitating scarcity!
I may have said that before about Meister Eckhart, but truly, being grateful for life's little wonders all around us is such a countercultural stance that I can't help but notice it and say "YES!!" Love to you and yours.
I used to feel exactly the same way — saving things for special days. But over the last few years I’ve also begun to see everyday as special and have been trying to incorporate more of the little things I once would’ve waited to use. It’s true that it really does bring more pleasure and contentment into each day.
