Rumination, resolutions, and IMMD

[Guest guest]

I'm afraid I will forget my siblings, and am perhaps a little bit obsessive

about it. I also know I need to move on in order to heal. Rumination on things I

cannot change at this time is dragging me down, so I need to remember the

serenity prayer:

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

courage to change the things I can,

and wisdom to know the difference.

Last night, I was reading through It Made My Day, and I realized that it's a

good antidote to rumination. I need to make it a daily habit to find and

recognize the wonderful things in life. I thought, perhaps that's something I

could do for Lent (which is fast approaching), find ways to be thankful.

Basically, I need to practice noticing the little moments of win every day.

Then I got to thinking--why wait until Lent?

So, every day, I need to write down at least one IMMD, through Facebook or in my

journal.

The first one today is:

The sun was already dawning when I woke up at 5:40 this morning. Waking up to

the rosy light over the lake MMD.
