Almost every day, Margie writes a little note in the lunch she packs for me. It is not only romantic, but helps me keep an attitude of gratitude throughout the work day. It also increases the love that I feel for her with every note I read! This time she decorated an entire bag. Not only do I have a very talented and artistic lady, but she uses her talents to be loving towards me. Now if that would not make me grateful, I do not know what would.
She also found a way to write a little inspiring note on the bag. What did it say? As you can see above, she was thanking me for all I did! Imagine that. She goes through all of the work of decorating the bag, writing a loving note and then thanks me for all that I do! Appreciating your partner is the surest way to receive appreciation from them. Who does not like to feel appreciated? I can promise you all of us do. This added to the love that I felt for my beautiful lady. Alas, there was even more love inside!
Inside she had made me a tasty homemade chicken salad sandwich. Making sure I had enough energy to make it through the day. By the time I even got to taste the food, I was so full of love and appreciation that I already had lots of energy. To many, you could look at this and say that your love packed a lunch and wrote a note. It might make you feel good. If you really stop and think about the time they took to do that, the thought it took to come up with something loving, the care they must of felt for you in order to do all of these things, then it would make you feel extraordinary!!! It should. We must consider everything someone does for us that makes us feel so loved.
\Next time your spouse does something that may even seem simple to you, stop and think of everything it took for them to accomplish. It may not even seem like much to them, but the fact that they did it when they did not have to should tell you all that you know. There are countless things throughout the day that we do for each other. The more we stop and think about it, the more there is to be grateful for. The more we are grateful, the happier we are both with them and with our life. Talk about a win/win situation!
