Gratitude

I've been having a hard time finding the joy in life lately.

Consequently, I have put myself on a "gratitude karma" regimen. Every time I complain about something I have to think of two things I'm grateful for. So far it's been helping.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I have a life that is truly blessed and for which I am very grateful. A wonderful husband, an exceptional family, loving in-laws, health, opportunity, education, comfort, peace of mind for the present, hope for the future and a sense of purpose in my daily life... to name a few.

I wish you all a very happy Thanksgiving full of crazy fun family and delicious food.

Gratitude unlocks the fulness of life

"Gratitude unlocks the fulness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity... It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow."

-Melodie Beattie

A lesson in gratitude...

This may be the most inspiring blog I've ever come across.

Leah writes thank you notes to random objects. Its such a positive way to see the world. I could use a little more of that. Take a read through, your spirits will inevitably be lifted.

These are a few of my favorites...
