“I write about the power of trying, because I want to be okay with failing. I write about generosity because I battle selfishness. I write about joy because I know sorrow. I write about faith because I almost lost mine, and I know what it is to be broken and in need of redemption. I write about gratitude because I am thankful for all of it.” — Kristin Armstrong
Thought for Today
“When we become more fully aware that our success is due in large measure to the loyalty, helpfulness, and encouragement we have received from others, our desire grows to pass on similar gifts. Gratitude spurs us on to prove ourselves worthy of what others have done for us. The spirit of gratitude is a powerful energizer.” — Wilferd A. Peterson

12 Tips for Gluten Free Living #2: Focus on what you Can Eat
Copyright 2013 by R.A. Robbins
If you continue to focus on what you can’t eat you will continue to feel deprived and miserable. Shift your focus to what you can eat.
- Make a list of everything you can think of that is gluten free.
- Start with the obvious naturally gluten free stuff like fruits and veggies and go from there.
- Don’t worry, you will keep adding new foods as you think of them.
- If you are uncertain of certain foods do a search to discover their gluten free status.
If you need help coming up with a list ask for help. Bob made my list while I was still wallowing in self-pity.
Post you list in a place where you can see it easily. Keep adding as you discover new foods. I call my list my “refrigerator list” because I keep it on the refrigerator door.
