Be Thankful

Yesterday, along with many people around the country, I was saddened to hear of the passing of Maya Angelou. 

She was such an inspiration and truly lived life to the fullest!

As I was sitting at a wine party last night this quote from Angelou really stuck out to me. "Be present in all things and thankful for all things."

I find it very hard in this day and age when we are so glued to 20 different pieces of technology to really be present. Last night though I wanted to be present {wine was involved} not glued to my phone wondering who was tweeting who. Besides taking a few photos, I was free from my digital world for a little bit and it was such a great feeling to be present. It was an evening to be thankful for!!


Do you have to remind yourself every once in a while to be present? Have you ever really 'unplugged' from technology?
