I am grateful for my location…

By
Real Estate Agent with Fathom Realty Washington LLC

 

I find myself reflecting on the numerous blessings that living in Washington State has brought into my life. This beautiful corner of the Pacific Northwest has provided me with countless reasons to be grateful.

 

First and foremost, the natural beauty of Washington State is a constant source of wonder and joy. The lush forests, majestic mountains, and pristine lakes and rivers have offered me endless opportunities for outdoor exploration and recreation. From hiking in the Cascades to sailing on Puget Sound, I've been able to connect with nature in a way that has enriched my life and kept me active and healthy.

 

Another reason for gratitude is the sense of community that permeates Washington. The people here are known for their friendliness, inclusivity, and strong sense of environmental stewardship. This welcoming atmosphere has made me feel at home and allowed me to forge meaningful connections with fellow residents.

 

Living in Washington State has also provided me with access to world-class healthcare and educational institutions. As I've aged, the proximity to renowned medical facilities and senior care services has given me peace of mind, knowing that I am in capable hands. Additionally, Washington's commitment to education has allowed me to continue learning and growing, even in my later years.

 

Furthermore, I am thankful for the cultural diversity and vibrant arts scene that enriches my life. Museums, theaters, and music venues in Seattle and other cities have offered me countless opportunities to explore different aspects of human creativity and expression.

 

 

In conclusion, as a resident of Washington State, I am profoundly grateful for the natural beauty, welcoming community, top-notch healthcare and education, and cultural richness that this state has bestowed upon me. It's a place that has allowed me to savor life's beauty and possibilities, and for that, I am truly blessed

Hi Paul! What a lovely post and your photos are breathtaking, as always! Your passion for your beautiful state shines through your every word. How fortunate you are to live in an area that offers so much that seems to perfectly fit your every fiber. 

I am an outdoorsy person as well and can totally relate to all that Washington has to offer with regards to the great outdoors. I have only traveled to Seattle and remember being in awe of how beautifully green everything is and the flower blooms seemed to be triple what we have here! I suppose it's all those afternoon showers they get in Seattle?! 

Thank you for sharing in this month's challenge, Paul! Looking forward to your next one.

Good morning, Paul.
Washington is definitely a beautiful state and has a lot to offer residents and visitors. I just wish they'd reduce the exorbitant gas tax. 🙄

Love you photos Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, CRS I have visited your lovely Seattle when Starbucks debuted.  I connected with several hundred women as a National Delegate for CREW Commercial Real Estate Women.  

I never realized your streets remind me of San Francisco on our morning walk up and down those hills.  One can feel their mortality!  So many beautiful nature points to visit and enjoy.  I see why you love your surroundings.

Hi Paul.  I love this first photo and I love your area.  My son lives in Seattle but used to live on the base close to where you are.  We visited in 2019 and had such a great time.  I am wanting to go back.  The scenery there is breathtaking!  I am thankful I got to visit!
