30 days of peace - day six

Today is day six on my quest for calmness and peace. It's a Sunday and has been a peaceful day in part because there was not a lot of running around and no chores got done. Truly a day of rest.

My gratitudes for the day included:

rainy sunshine (I love it when that happens)

lying in bed reading uninterrupted for a whole hour (a real treat)

D making me popcorn and a cup of tea (unbidden) this afternoon

a phone call from my Uncle who I had not talked to in a long time

I'm finding that thanks to Chaotic Mom's idea of a 30 quest for peace I am sitting down every day (even if I don't post every day) and conciously focusing on those things that are positive and bring a sense of calm into my day. It's a really nice exercise. I'm also enjoying checking in with the others who are doing this to see what they are up to for their peaceful quest; it's encouraging to see them working at it as well.
