Sunday Moment of Gratitude - So if you are reading this....

This week, I am grateful for:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - I suppose after all the hoopla on the news about the world coming to an end, that I should start by simply saying that I am grateful for today! The news has been amusing if nothing else, a 'rapture', then an apocalypse, then even more comical was the reports of a 'zombie apocalypse'. Thankfully I love Horror Movies, so I still remember the sage advice from the movie 'Zombieland'. Stock up on Snacks my friends, just in case.... LOL

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Ascending Butterfly will always be a place where all expressions of Faith and Inspiration are very much welcome. Today I took comfort in these words from the Holy Bible:

Matthew 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone."

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Because we don't know 'when and if' live each day as if it's your last, dance like nobody is watching, and in this day, be it large or small, make a BOLD move. Whatever you deep down, secretly thought you'd regret if the world had truly ended. DO IT. No more excuses. Make this an 'Excuses-Pacolypse'. (OK, that might have been a lot of creative liberty, writers prerogative, but you know what I mean!)

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - I am still sorting through the mess that having my servers (both email and website) crash caused, thankfully entries appear to be returning and none have been lost so far, it's just taking me a bit to sort through them all, I've been burning the midnight oil most of the weekend, and hope to soon have winners selected and notified very soon for the Earthies, B-Glowing and 1800baskets.com Giveaways.

REMINDER: Again, PLEASE do NOT post duplicate entries for the Wilson's Pelle Camden Satchel if your entries still don't appear. I am working on sorting the entries that are being returned by the server in order of giveaway close out date, and since that giveaway doesn't close out until May 31st, the entries for that one aren't currently being sorted so that we can get the outstanding giveaways squared away first. As soon as we are fully caught up, new giveaways will launch, begining with our very patient friends at Borghese.

What are you grateful for today? I'd love for you to write in and share what you are grateful for this week. The more you say it, the more you speak it, and the more you live in gratitude, the more you will find reasons to be grateful for, and the more reasons that the universe will send you to be grateful for. So join me on this journey of gratitude and inspiration. And you can post here daily (even though my list will be posted weekly).

Remember, attitude really does determine altitude.
