Everything we do should be a result of our gratitude for what God has done for us. ~ Lauryn Hill
I stood outside on the top deck one night, alone in the encroaching darkness and stillness, and received the joy of the gift of that moment. The sun setting, the moon rising, and the coolness setting in caused me to draw in a deep breathe of gratitude.
The Alaskan Adventure has come to an end. I am home now, laundry done, groceries bought, and ready for work tomorrow. Though not a perfect vacation by any means, I still rejoice in many memories that I have. I saw some spectacular scenery and met some interesting people. I learned many things. How can I not be grateful?
I said to my sister tonight that I did not get seasick and laughed about a few stories related to the roughness and how one night the drawers to my night table opened and closed several times but I slept soundly through it all.
I took a moment to step on the scale tonight and much to my surprise, I appear to have lost a pound. Must have been all those stairs on the ship!! Thanks for small miracles and for giving me eyes to see them.
Peace,
Suzanne
