#9 List Things You Treasure Most

Hi friends, 

Our topic this week; “List Things You Treasure Most”, is similar to our topic in week 7; “List the People Who Brighten Your Day”.  There will be a few of the same people/things on this list as I listed in week 7. 

There are so many people that come to my mind, and I do treasure these people in my life as well as the moments I have spent or continue to spend with them.

  • My mother – I treasure each moment with her- I’m still in awe of her and so in love. 
  • My siblings, nieces/nephew, auntie’s/uncles, cousins – I am LOST without them.
  • My Thursday Al-Anon meeting – it has changed my life and I wouldn’t give up who I have become for who I was before Al-Anon.  Treasuring this meeting is an understatement. 
  • My sweet friends – the ride or die kind.  It’s like the taste of good food; they have carried me through so much and have walked me off the ledge.  My time with them is SO special. 
  • My Godchildren – the way they look at me melts my heart.  They truly love me unconditionally.
  • I treasure my mornings- I have my time with my God, do my daily bible plans and my daily devotion.
  • YOU – I treasure you and the WordPress community who follow my blog and support it.
  • The holidays- each year brings new memories and new gratefulness.
  • My home- I’ve been in my current place for 15 years, and I’ve treasured the memories of many people friends and family coming in for gatherings, and socializing.  I have a lot of memories of the laughter and joy in my home, the movie nights.  It’s also where I’ve offered a friend to come and feel safe and hang out here while having a bad day.  I treasure that I these moments.
  • My freedom- I’m SO grateful to be in a country where I have my freedom, this is priceless. 
  • Photographs – Oh how I love my photo albums… how many people do you know who still print photos and store them in photo albums? The new photo albums are the files you create on your iPhone / Android device. I still LOVE the good old photo album; I still pull them out from time to time… 
  • Music – 🎵🎶 – music can transcend barriers, time, and the language it sometimes creates. Music is one of the easiest ways to connect with other people and even yourself. What else besides photos can you say will have you remembering memories or feelings with in the first few seconds of songs’ notes or in case of photos, the first few seconds of glancing at it?  The best part is, you can share these wonderful experiences because you can take music with you everywhere, your car, your phone, your external boom box etc…
  • Learning / Education – gosh, I think this is one of the most important things we have in this life; is the ability to grow and change.  Definitely a treasure. 
  • Religion / Spirituality – No matter what you believe in, to have the freedom to choose is a treasure, and you have the control to choose what fits your life. 
  • My Health – I may not be able to defend myself from illnesses, however, what a blessing to be able to choose a healthy lifestyle, so I can continue to move and grow and have my body carry me through life, even with pain as we get older.  
  • Technology – WOW!  Without it, you wouldn’t be reading this post.  You wouldn’t be able to get to this post without your device (PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone, Android) and let’s not forget none of those devices would matter without internet.
  • Lastly, I treasure laughing – a belly laugh that has be rolling on the floor is the one I treasure the most!
