We are constituted so that simple acts of kindness, such as giving to charity or expressing gratitude, have a positive effect on our long-term moods. The key to the happy life, it seems, is the good life: a life with sustained relationships, challenging work, and connections to community. -- Paul Bloom
Gratitude is the quality or feeling of being grateful or thankful. I love this quote above as it totally explains what it means to be grateful.
What are you grateful for?
Here are some of the things I am grateful for:
-Being alive
-Roof over my head
-Food to eat
-Clean water
-Love of my soulmate and husband MR N
-My health
-Love of my friends and family
-My home
-My freedoms
-My spirituality
-This website
-Twitter followers
-Ability to help those less fortunate
-My gift for writing
Those are just a few of the things I am most grateful for. How are about you?
As you start your day, think about all the things you are grateful for and write them down. For those people you are grateful for, send them an email or give them call to say, "I'm so grateful you are in my life".
Gratitude is contagious and the more you are grateful, the more gratitude is spread throughout this beautiful world!
