Day 1: January 1, 2011

This is the first day of my 365 days of gratefulness project. Basically, for an entire year I have dedicated myself to taking a picture every day of something I am grateful for. I am hoping it will help me see something beautiful in every day I live this year; something everyone needs.

"Months ago I would have told you that life was about doing, about jumping through religious hoops, about impressing other people, and my actions would have told you this is done by buying possessions or keeping a good image or going to church. I don’t believe that anymore. I think we are supposed to stand in deserts and marvel at how the sun rises. I think we are supposed to sleep in meadows and watch stars dart across space and time. I think we are supposed to love our friends and introduce people to the story, to the peaceful, calming why of life. I think life is spirituality." - Donald Miller

Today I am grateful for the rain. Rain washes away the old and brings the new;
 the perfect gift for the new year.
