Three Things Thursday: Three Things I Am Grateful For This Fall

In honor of Three Things Thursday, I reflect on three things I am grateful for today. Practicing gratitude is a wonderful thing to do for our health and happiness.

1. Fall Produce and Good Friends — Okay that is two things, but they are related! My good friend gave me some fresh produce she grew in her garden (see picture above). I am amazed at the vibrant colors and the flavors are much deeper than the produce from my supermarket. These vegetables were obviously grown with love.

2. The Generosity of Strangers — Especially Bloggers: I am participating in my first Giveaway Blog Hop Link Up. It has been stressful for a newbie such as myself as I experienced technical difficulties from the start. I am grateful for all the support and guidance I received from more experienced bloggers from the Up All Night blogging group. If interested, please enter my giveaway drawing for a Gurin Spa Vapor Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Diffuser (Whew! What a mouthful!). At the bottom of the give-a-way post, you will find links to the other giveaways. Feel free to enter the other giveaways from the #JustBecause Giveaway Blog Hop (all giveaways run September 15 – September 29). I am grateful for the generosity of the Up All Night bloggers participating in the #JustBecause Giveaway Hop. And I am also grateful to Gurin for donating the diffuser for the give-a-way.

3. Good Advice: I am grateful for the advice from wise women and men. I review a lot of beauty products which means that I spend a lot of time grooming and primping. I am grateful for the following quote from Audrey Hepburn about what truly makes a person beautiful…

1. For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

2. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
3. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
4. For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
5. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
6. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
7. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of each of your arms.
8. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
9. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair.
10. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. ― Audrey Hepburn
