“Self Portrait”- Soft Pastel on Paper
18”x 23”
Hello my world. This precious day.
With thanks I greet this day.
I choose to live a better life.
Each and every way.
I hear the sounds. I smell the air.
I see the sky above.
I see the gifts been given me.
A world that’s full of love.
I’m thankful for the gifts I have.
My health, my heart, my mind.
Today I give my gifts to you.
My heart, my love, my time.
The Backstory:
As I look at my face in the mirror every day, I ask myself, “What are you grateful for today?”
I am thankful for my life. I am thankful for my health. But mostly, I am grateful for my family, my friends, and you. It is you, who make me strive to be better every day.
What are YOU thankful for?
After all ... it’s a beautiful life!
