A double drabble (200 words) on the theme of giving thanks.


To attract more good into your life, first give gratitude for what you have. She's taken this to heart and spends a few minutes each night and each morning giving thanks.

Today she stands in the garden, giving thanks for that private green space. She's thankful for her hot coffee. The mug clasped in her hands was a birthday gift from her friend and she's thankful for friendship.

She's thankful for the warm sun on her face. Thankful that it will dry her laundry, and thankful for her favourite t-shirt which is blowing in the breeze.

A blackbird hops across the lawn, pecking at the scattered birdseed, and she gives thanks for the wildlife that visits her each day. She always enjoys watching the birds, butterflies, and bees.

Soon she'll go indoors and check her phone, and she's thankful for how easily she can keep in touch with family and friends. Then reply to any work emails – and she's thankful for her job. Later she'll get milk from the local store and she's grateful for having the money to buy what she needs.

She finishes her drink, gives one more heartfelt thank you for all her blessings, and goes inside.
