I've started to reboot my Grits and Gossip blogging days several times over the last few years. I began formats on several different blogging platforms. It always ends up feeling overwhelming that I don't have a custom logo or professional design or beautiful photography skills. So here I am back on the trusty and familiar blogger site.
In the spirit of a simple reboot, Grits and Gratitude is here. I'm grateful you're here and in the chaos of the world around us, I hope to keep this blog focused on the simple, life-giving things making life happier.
It only takes a few minutes to read or watch what is going on in the world around us to feel overwhelmed and anxious. We're living in the midst of a historically divisive political climate, there is a "pending pandemic," climate change, and so on. While I do think it's important to be informed and have a voice on issues important to us, I believe it's equally important to bring a sense of peace and balance to our lives.
I'm not an expert, but am always seeking ways to practice gratitude and enjoy the everyday moments and simple pleasures that have a way of bringing us "home." By home, I mean that safe and comfortable place inside ourselves that helps us recharge and reminds us that our personal grit and heartfelt gratitude matters.
My hope is that this blog will be like meeting up with an old friend you haven't seen in a while. You know, the ones that you can pick right back up where you left off.
It's so good to see you again!
