What are you grateful for today?

wow, where to start...

It was mum's 69th birthday two days ago. I'm SO GRATEFUL that she is still physically and mentally fit and constantly smiling!

Dad has had four strokes in the last five years and is almost entirely paralysed down one side and uses the wheelchair more than he walks. And yet, he chose to go through a driving assessment. His driving was apparently fine, but he struggled with the matching of pictures, so he must now sit a new test... nevertheless, i am STUNNED that he still has the drive (excuse the pun) to WANT to get behind the wheel again!

Then, I had NLP Master Trainer Topher Morrison staying with me for the last couple of days (there are only a dozen NLP Master Trainers in the entire world!! - i was thinking about that, and i can't think of NAY profession where there are only a dozen in the whole world... ok, so there's only one Pope, but there are more than a dozen Presidents and Prime-Ministers in the world - wow, what an accolade!)
Topher flew in to Scotland (at his own expense) to give FREE presentations. I'm pleased to say, he had a full house at each venue (even though it was free... stats show that many people don't bother turning up to free events), and the audience LOVED him so much, that I received loads of "thanks" (and i only introduced him - how cool is that!?)

Life is just getting better and better (finally... i've had PLENTY of challenges in 2007) - the one thing that did strike me, was at my dad's driving assessment, there were two other applicants waiting to be assessed, and both were around his age, both totally alone (perched at opposite sides of the room), and both had actually LOST their legs... it just made me appreciate how lucky we really are!!

Is it just me, or is there truly a "shift" in energy happening???
Whatever is happening, it feels GREAT!
