This morning I experienced the joy of surrender. After a rough night with my little one, my husband's alarm was not a welcome sound. I thought about my day and realized there was nothing that couldn't be pushed back half an hour.
I surrendered to the comfort of the bed and the embrace of the dark bedroom. Ahh, sweet surrender! I did not fall back asleep but just laying there doing nothing felt amazing.
I'm grateful to surrender. I'm grateful to make a conscious effort to have a positive attitude each time I went into my daughter's room last night. I'm grateful for the sleep I got in between. I'm grateful to get up in a great mood all because I allowed myself that extra twenty minutes of relaxation. And I'm grateful to not count that as part of the thirty minutes I will take for myself today; it was just a bonus.
What can you surrender to today that will boost your joy? What inspires your gratitude?
May today remind us the little things make a big difference. May we gift ourselves as many of these as our schedules allow. Have a beautiful day!
