Daily Question, December 1

What are some “basic” things for which I am truly grateful?

  • Nelson

    Same as everyone has mentioned: food, shelter, water, safety, etc.

  • Marnie Jackson

    Food, shelter, safety, connection

    love
    my husband
    the world
    I don’t know what is “basic,” When you feel truly grateful, everything seems extraordinary!

  • DeVonna

    Love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness…all the things that make life worth living.

  • EJP

    Good health, happiness, strength, courage, peace, love, faith and safety for all.

    I woke up this morning 🙂
    I have shelter, clean water, fresh air, and a partner to share the journey with.
    Cat & dog snuggles, sunrises and sunsets. And this hot cup of coffee!

  • Kevin

    Water, food, shelter, air, companionship, and love.

    The ‘Word of the Day’

    “Our own lives are the instruments with which we experiment with truth.”
    THICH NHAT HANH

    Encapsulates the “basic thing” but I treat the words “our own lives” to be referring to the personalities we, as Humans, put on with each new incarnation so we can yes “experiment” with in this Infinite BE-ing-ness ( aka “Life” ) we ARE and DO journey in this re-discovery of the Truth. And the “ARE and Do” is encapsulated in one word…”friendship”.

  • Dusty Su

    Breathing, sleeping, walking, talking, thinking, connecting….

  • Michele

    My home, utilities, food, and a car are ‘basic’ things for which I am truly grateful. Oh, and my hot shower in the morning – sorry Christine, hot is where it’s at, not cold, lol.

  • Mary Pat

    Being able to get out of bed by myself and not need constant help. Having a home, a family, never having to worry about food, or transportation, clothing or communication devices like computers or phones. Having insurance on cars, home and health…so many things!

  • Christine

    Fresh water and my cold shower in the morning.
