In writing a gratitude list today (which I need to do more often), I noted, in looking around, how much a few pieces of lemon in my water had brightened and sweetened my day; but, in looking my list back over, the word lemons had an entirely new meaning. I have felt encouraged recently, in a variety of ways, to better appreciate problems and, in this new light, recognized I actually had begun to feel more grateful – even for these.
