FRIDAY FIVE on Gratitude
Look carefully at the picture above til you see the smiling face.
I got tagged by Jessica, who said
Hello OM!
I hope you are having a lovely day. I have tagged you in my blog! We're starting up the Friday Five questions (read more here) and I tagged you, inviting you to blog your answers for these questions about gratitude:
1) What are you thankful for today?
2) What do you appreciate about the Earth?
3) Who is the last person you said "thank you" to?
4) When was the last time someone thanked you?
5) What is your favorite way to say thank you?
I look forward to seeing your answers and hope you will take me up on the invitation :)
Hugs,
Jessica

What is the Friday Five? Well, it's a community-wide blogging party featuring five themed questions each week. It is so much fun and gets everyone on Gaia introspecting and sharing. There is so much to learn from these little questions and your answers can be as long or short as you like.
This week is all about gratitude in celebration of Thanksgiving in the United States and appreciation everywhere. Just follow these easy steps:
Step 1) Write your blog on Friday answering the loverly questions below. You can copy and paste them into your blog and just type in answers.
Step 2) Make sure you've added "Friday Five" as a tag for the blog and in the title.
Step 3) If you wish, "Tag" up to five Gaia members and send a little note letting them know they're "it" and thus called upon to blog the Friday Five too. These members can be in your friends list or new people you'd just like to connect with. Then they answer the Friday Five and can tag more Gaians :)
So, come on and play! Won't you? Open up that blog and tell us...

Here are my thoughts:
I am not clear whether we are committing to doing all 5 questions each Friday until death do us part, or doing just one set of questions. Check into next week's Team Blog, it might clarify. Or choose.
Maybe not as much fun as the 7 Weird Things about Me tag game, but I'll definitely be up for playing with gratitude !! It's really the key !! (I call it rejoicing, which is more being-at-cause wording, IMO.)
1. Today I am thankful for every minute of breathing, and everything I experienced in each of those moments.
2. I appreciate about the Earth she is so mindblowingly beautiful !!!!!! In so many many ways, from so many viewpoints, from the inner center of a flower to the view from space.
3. The last person I said Thank you to was someone today who sought my ministerial services. I said Thank you for the opportunity to be a resource !!
4. The last time someone thanked me was a few minutes ago, arranging with a girlfriend who is finally divorcing AOL and taking up with gmail tomorrow and I am doing an in-person tutorial for her on that.
5. My favorite way to say Thank you -- hmmm. That's the toughest question of all. I say it in a variety of ways, being a Gemini and easily bored, haha. I think most often I say I AM SO GRATEFUL TO YOU.
I am tagging mascha, andrew, maxie, I P (Individual Person,) and Kris. Please be assured this game is optional, and if any of you don't want to participate, let me know and I will choose someone else !!
Blessings to all,
OM Bastet

Hi Miss OM,
Thanks for tagging me… I got tagged this morning and have already answered the Friday Five… This could be fun!
I take it the divorce of your friend is a positive thing… man you can get so lost in all that negativity… Good for her. You're a great friend to her I'm certain.
Love & Light,
Kris
OM dear,
got this a little late to do anything this friday and will be busy with son home from college tomorrow but will follow along and get something up next friday, how about that?
Groovy. Go for it. To me the timing is not crucial, the willingness to play is what counts.
Kris, thanks for responding. Perhaps I will pick someone else…..
I have been trying to pry her loose from AOL for some time, it's just so primitive and restricted, so I am smirking in triumph. What happened was it ate an hour's worth of her work (gmail saves every 2 minutes, automatically) and crashed as well, making her need to re-install. A message from the Kosmos !!!!!
Yes, she's one of my oldest dearest friends….. Thanks for your compliment.
Hey OM, it's a little too much for me - what with the tagging five more and all. But I love the thought of playing something with you and everyone who feels so dear to me even if we're meeting only virtually.
Fresh warm woo woos to you.
