The Gratitude project- The rules are simple. Every day between Lammas and Mabon one must find something to be grateful for in life. No repeats - one can be grateful to people more than once, but it has be for different reasons.
Today I am grateful for willpower. I just realized that if you sit a box of tastykake donut holes in front of me my natural reflex is to just keep reaching into the box until they are gone....I stopped about 1/2 the way through the box, not because I felt full, but because I HAD EATEN HALF THE DAMN BOX!!! So now the donuts are safely tucked away and I am grateful for willpower...even if it doesn't kick in til half the box is gone....
