Today I want show gratitude to my mind. (Hmmmm, yesterday was body, today mind - I wonder what tomorrow will be?)

I'm pretty smart. Not crazy smart, but smart enough. I appreciate that some things just come easily for me - but conversely there are MANY things that do not. No matter how I try to grasp certain concepts, they slip right through the cracks of my consciousness into the great unknown  That's ok. I don't need to hold all of the things - that's what other people around me can do! Meanwhile, I can expand on the things that I do understand. I appreciate the ability to hold a subject in my thoughts and ruminate on it. Turn it over, think about it in different ways. It's actually how I spend a lot of my time (especially during the night when I'm not sleeping ). Most of the time, I like the way that I do that - turning my thoughts into a kaleidoscope. Looking at them from just a slightly different angle - changing them completely. That is AWESOME - and powerful - and sometimes it's hard to turn those thoughts off when I need to shut down my "computer" to get a break. (Insert meditation here)

I don't take my mind for granted. I appreciate my ability to think, reason and remember. Posting this makes me consider my mind in a totally different way - I think I'll go mull it over more
