What was your blessing today?  email this discussion to a friend?

So what was your blessing today? It may be something small, or something large. For me, it was when I gave my two dogs a bath. A lot of you know I have a lot of health problems. Bathing my dogs in the tub always makes my back hurt like agony. They are too big for the sink, and I can't afford a groomer. So I gave my dogs a bath, and when I was done I went about my business. That is when I realized I had NO back pain. Not even the regular day back pain. I just thought, thank you Lord! So often I look for the big blessings, but fail to see the many small ones right in front of me.


So please tell me about your blessing today. If you try hard, I think everyone can think of one. : )

hi, ambiepam. You are right, there's always blessing in our life if we really give a time to think about it. I have several today actually. 3 of them come in the mail. A check worth $50 ( LOL )...and then a letter from my first daughter school that they already sign her teacher for the coming year, and a letter from pre scool for my second daughter that they already sign her class too plus a warm welcoming note from their teacher. I might probably have more. But that's for now, no matter how much bill we have...LOL...but there's always blessing day by day

That's great. And that is so impressive that that teacher sent that note. I bet this is a very good school year for your daughters.

I'm glad you get to bath your dogs without suffering back pain. Also you bought up a good point that I have been missing.. counting our blessings. This past month I have done nothing but complain and unfortually I feel that I have a right to complain. My health is okay, not great but I can manage but this past month we have had an incredible heat wave and this has exhausted me!! We are in debt, not great debt but more than I like, so have been moaning about that. I also look for the big blessing and miss the small ones, like my nine year old who just made my breakfast because he knows that I hate to cook in the heat or my older boy who takes care of the younger ones so I can close my eyes for a few minutes, or my other son who helps with the difficult kids that I teach English too. I could go on but you get my drift!!
Being more grateful for what I have instead of wanting more or different would really help. I'm glad I came across your post this morning, a good way to start the day off... Thank you.

I'm so glad you dropped into this discussion! Sometimes hard time are impossible to forget about, but we have to remember something good is almost always just around the corner. I hope the rest of your day is wonderful. : )

Hi there my friend! Just woke up, I decided to open myLot since I have not been on for quite a long time. Well, my blessing for today is I woke up without feeling anything bad. I have been sick for two weeks because of the bad weather here and took me long to recover. I just got out of the hospital 2 days ago. I'm glad I was able to survive. Lost around 15 pounds though.


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20765)   ranked 269 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

I'm glad you are feeling better! Being sick is a drain on our bodies and our emotions. I hope you continue to feel good!

Awww your poor thing back pain is no fun. Im glad you didnt have any pain after washing your dogs thats a huge job. I would say my blessing is that I washed a couple of things out by hand because we dont have a washer yet. And they dried somewhat before the rain came. Take it easy girl with that back!


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20765)   ranked 269 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Oh, man. I can't imagine how frustrating it must be when stuff doesn't dry before the rain comes. I'm glad that didn't happen to you.

My blessing was yesterday. A venonmous snake, a Cottonmouth, slithered 8 inches from my feet and went into a nearby wood pile. My neighbor came over and killed it after my dog located its hiding place. I am blessed with a champion dog with a big heart and a marvelously brave neighbor who happens to be a woman!

That's a blessing of a lifetime! Not just to you, but all who love and care for you. I think your neighbor is now your guardian angel. : )

I rarely get to spend a lot of one on one time with my mom, but I got to spend several hours with her today. She helped me out with a writing assignment I had and it turned out even better than I had hoped. It was just nice to be able to spend lots of uninterrupted time with her, laughing and cutting up while we worked.

And they were blessed because they had YOU as their mother. I can tell by your discussions that you are a wonderful mother.

I'm so glad you were able to bathe your dogs without your back hurting. That is a major blessing! My blessing for the day was talking to my two step-daughters on the phone. I always enjoy talking to them and to the grandkids. I also got to sleep 30 minutes later than usual today. Very nice blessing!!

My blessing to day was that I woke up this morning healthy and in my right mind. I was also blessed by a poetry publishing company asking to publish one of my poems. I decided not to let them publish it because I would lose the rights to it... but I was blessed anyway just to be told they liked my poem.


myLot reputation of 95/100. OreoCookie3 (22470)  5 years ago

Yes, you are blessed to have your pain gone. Many blessings to you. :D


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20765)   ranked 269 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

Wow, what a morale booster! I mean, you knew your poem was good, but to have it validated by a request for publication is really awesome. But I don't blame you for not wanting to give up the rights to it.


myLot reputation of 91/100. lpetges (2311)   ranked 5,503 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

i woke up today! that is a blessing in itself for me.
