I saw these words yesterday and thought how true they are. No matter how black things may seem at times, if you look carefully, you can usually find at least one thing that is right in your life, even if it's only tiny.
I may try and remember to make this a regular Thursday thing. Just so each week I have to think of something that really is right in my life on that day. Some of my days are full of frustration at the things I took for granted but can no longer do such as knitting, sewing, using scissors, writing and so it goes on because it includes things like gardening and even walking. With all that frustration though there are things in my life that are right and I think we should all be looking for the right things, the good things and be thankful for them regardless of any 'bad' if 'annoying' things that are there as well.
Today I looked for what is right for me and it is this: for some months (nay, years perhaps) I've wanted to move a long table from behind the sofa in the living room and replace it with a smallish desk. Phil and I managed to get the folding table out (we used it in the front garden for afternoon tea on Sunday) and on that day our son-in-law and grandson-in-law moved the desk from my workroom into the living room without me even asking them (they'd heard me talking about it)...they are two great people.
This room is only 10' x 10' so not huge but without that desk in here I seem to have so much more room. Now I can concentrate on sorting out the things I want and don't want (haven't used that fan for a few years so it can go) so for me this is what is right in my life today. It's only a small 'right' but the chance to be rid of more clutter always sits well with me. Hidden behind my chair are a few boxes of 'stuff' which will give me more floor space and I've already got a couple of empty cupboards so it's all systems go from now on.
I hope you can find something really 'right' in your life today and if so, perhaps let me know what it is.
P.S. I now realise that one of those colourful files is upside down. Needed a photo to see it. lol
