Every morning I
take a moment to choose something in that day for which to be thankful. Often
times it's the scent of my roses outside my door. Every day I am grateful that
I live in my beloved Arizona. I have a career I love. And family that needs me.

Welcome Tara. Stopping to smell the roses is one thing we forget to do in this fast paced life. Thank you for the reminder. And for your support with the National Domestic Violence Hotline. We often take our personal safety and those of our family for granted as well.
ReplyDeleteHI Tara! Stopping to smell the roses sounds like such a cliche, but when you actually Stop in front of a rose bush and take in their beauty, you realize why the cliche is so true. It's hard not to smile when you relax fro a moment and absorb their beauty and perfume. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tara for reminding me to pause each day--to smell the roses. I used to end my day listing at least three items I was grateful for and your post reminded me to do so again. :)
ReplyDeleteKatie,
ReplyDeleteI purposely bought rose bushes for the side of my driveway for that reason. I walked around the nursery, smelled the various kinds of roses, and purchased based on the scent. So on days I forget to stop, to be thankful, to see the good around me, my roses remind me to do so.
