This is my plan. Every night, I will jot down something praiseworthy that happened that day. So far I’m two for two.
I know it seems simple; that’s part of the lure for me. It’s something I can do, something I can actually look forward to doing, as opposed to dreading some looming obligation that’s poised and ready to unload a burden of guilt if I don’t follow through.
I imagine this will become a favorite part of my day, and night, as I focus on the good things in my life. I look to the day when I realize I’ve got so many choices that perhaps I’ll get really ambitious and write about two, three or many good things.
So, that’s my plan for 2009. What will you do this year to make it better than the last?
I know you are big on journaling so I hope you continue this practice because it is so Teresa. It reminds me of what I pray for you often, “Whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me-put it into practice. And the God of peace be with you.” Philippians 4:8-9 You are ‘putting into practice’ by posting your actions on your site – sharing God, loving others! You Go Girl!!! Love you!
