The Innkeeper Is Still Growing---Learning New Skills

I've been busy, churning out posts

       Good late evening everyone,
How are you? What a day. Lately I've not been eating much. I just haven't felt hungry. There have been four days this past week when I preferred researching to eating
and skipped eating for the day, perhaps having one meal. 
     Today, I cooked two nutritious, lean, healthy meals. So, that's a start towards better eating habits.

     In late December I had an unusual, difficult and startling experience. Those of you who routinely read the musings of this innkeeper may have by now put two and two together. I've alluded to this episode in a few of my posts.  
    This weekend, I'll share some thoughts I've learned from the experience. It's too late doing so, tonight.

     The last post was the three hundredth I've written, in less than a year. I like recognizing  milestones. They allow me to measure progress. I'm happy with what I see. I'll share my "300 posts" gratitudes and then head off for bed.

My Gratitudes for Friday: 
1. I don't allow obstacles to stop me from accomplishing goals. In this case, being an innkeeper who consistently did his job. (It's not really my job, its been my joy.) I see impediments as opportunities for learning resourcefulness and how to stay in the solution. I enjoy challenges.
2. Progress requires practice. We don't get anything for free, that includes accomplishment. I'm thankful I've invested in myself by being diligent, responsible and consistent.  
   I've consistently written for this inn, more than 25 posts a month. Discipline helps me to grow and develops my character. 
3. I enjoy the opportunity for self-expression this inn provides. 
    My career has been as a teacher, public speaker and counselor. My work is talking. 
    Becoming the innkeeper of the Attitude of Gratitude Inn made me write, which is an entirely different animal, believe me. However, as a result, my thoughts are now captured in printed form.  As a speaker, what I share is fleeting, they become mere figments in the minds of those who hear me. 
     What I share here is permanent. I'm able to review my musings in printed form. I can see my growth as I walk the journey of life. I'm thankful for the creativity and growth I've experienced as I learned what is involved in writing more than 25 postings a month. 
     I'm glad I've invested in myself, by being the innkeeper.
4. I appreciate you, the guests of this inn. I celebrate you participating with me. We're learning how to have an Attitude of Gratitude. A heart of joy is ours as we regularly express thankfulness. Thank you, for letting me get to know you.  You make what I do here worthwhile.

How about you? 

a. What do you like about having a heart of thankfulness? 

b. What do you liked best about what we share here? 

I look forward to hearing your answers. I may even place them in upcoming posts.
