Grateful

Today we had a cleaning service come in to clean for the first time ever. A woman in her 50's shows up, in the rain, after traveling for over an hour with a big bag of cleaning supplies with a big smile on her face, ready to get to work. She was here for five hours an our apartment has never smelled or looked better. I asked her if she liked her job and she said she loves it. I ask her what she loves about it and she said "I love that I have it" Now, I know what I paid her boss and she traveled over two hours total and worked for five hours, so her hourly wage was....let's just say, not much. And, she was singing the whole time while she worked. I paid to have our apartment cleaned and also got a lesson in gratitude. This was another reminder to enjoy what I'm doing and where I am while at the same time always improving and moving forward.
