I enjoy winter time. I absolutely hate being cold.
Contradiction? Not necessarily.
I love scarfs, gloves, coats, *insert whatever accessory that helps you stay warm and is also cute*.
Things that are so pertinent to keeping me warm, but that double as a fashion statement. What more could I ask for? So while I don't like the coldness of the winter season, I have cute accessories to keep me warm that I can't wear before November or after February. (unless you count the random snow days during spring break)
I was pulling out some scarfs and gloves to pack for my trip this weekend and I found a pair of gloves that I had completely forgot that I even owned. In that moment I thought to myself,
"How lucky am I that I can't even remember all the stuff that I have?"
Some people will go entire lifetimes owning fewer things that I forget that I have in one season. How often do I take for granted that I have a dozen pair of jeans to pick from? Or that I get to pick what shoes I'm going to put on when I go outside this morning.
I'm going to try to notice things that I take for granted. For example..
1. Multiple cereal choices
or
2. Having enough silverware for our whole family to eat at the same time. (you'd be surprised how many families don't have enough utensils to eat dinner together)
Just some small thoughts from my morning in the coat closet.
(3. we have a closet just for our coats.)
