Feeling Appreciated/Not Feeling Appreciated (I admit I have a weakness) :) I must admit I have a true weakness. Right now I feel cherished, but occasionally when I feel bad, I can get caught up in not feeling appreciated. It is one of my most loathed emotions (not feeling appreciated or understood). Usually, when I feel this way, I realize that its because Im not appreciating (or taking good care of) myself and that it has nothing to do with other people. Still sometimes it feels linked to the world. So this Thanksgiving I had this thought. Well, first of all, on Thursday morning I wanted to get up really early in the morning, while it was still dark, and make myself a cup of coffee and sit down at my kitchen counter and write thank you notes to all of the people in my life who I felt truly grateful for. Unfortunately, my 2 yr old daughter woke up early and then the day just full on started so it never happened. I did manage to write 3 thank you notes over the course of the whole weekend though and it felt great! I love saying Thank You!: Thank You! Anyway. so the thought I had over the weekend was this: If you sometimes do feel unappreciated (or under appreciated) you are in great company! What I mean is that many things of great beauty and value are, at times, less than fully appreciated. I was dreaming about Lake Michigan and how beautiful it is and then I was thinking of all the polluting that happens to it and how some companies take water from it to sell in bottles and that at times people who live only a few blocks from it dont even bother to visit it. Now, dont get me wrong, a lot of people DO appreciate Lake Michigan (Id venture to say most), but Im just saying that in general, a lot of beautiful aspects of naturetrees, mountains, flowers can be overlooked or stolen from or not cherished in their fullest sense. I know you already know this, but somehow it was a comforting thought that in a society that that has mixed feelings about valuing nature and sometimes places higher value on things for their economic return, that none of us is alone. And that not feeling appreciated is not unique and is not a statement on your intrinsic value. Whether you are feeling appreciated or not, you are in the fabulous company of some of the most beautiful and healing aspects of our world! Heres hoping you give and receive (or give and receive from yourself) a word of thanks & acknowledgment today! And heres hoping you feel love and appreciation this holiday season! You are love and are loved! :) AOH ) Anne Heaton Customer Support | Privacy Policy | Terms of Service Please do not reply to this email.
