What a precious story Bill! I can just picture you zoning out and focusing into the heartbeat of another place…like really stopping to say grace. Hugs and thanks for you Bill!!!

Great writing Bill. We all need reminders to approach life with a grateful attitude and to look for silver linings in anything!! It’s no small wonder that you and Michelle are together, what great joy you bring to each other and to all of us who are fortunate to be able to take part in your sharing!

Great post, Bill! Now I know that I don’t need to look far to find joy on a day when I’m feeling hopeless. Just being thankful can help me get there. Your post is good timing for me, so thank you. I like that you shared the sentence, too, about how you felt it was a simple announcement. I’ve come to believe that simple isn’t easy. Thank you for the reminder.

Woo Hoo!! Love that you shared this experience with everyone! We all have these days and so many of us get bogged down in the day and if we only take a moment as you did, it can all change! Thanks for reminding me that being grateful is so easy!!
Love you!

Isn’t it amazing…the power we have over our disposition?!? I choose joy and gratitude daily and like you wish to experience it in every moment. Who’s to say we can’t?

Bill, thank you for sharing your thoughts and how you overcame the chaos of the moment. I too can appreciate the “little things” and often times focusing on what we are grateful for can truly pull us through any situation we may not desire to be in. Thanks to you and Michelle for making a huge difference in the lives of others by “being” the joyful couple you are.

I’m with you! Gratitude and joy ARE synonymous, and I can’t think of a time when I had one without the other. I never thought of it this way! You’re always so good at tying things together and making life…simple. Thanks for contributing a great post! :)
