I am so grateful for all of the many blessings in my life, which includes my good friends Julie, Angela and Tom, and others too numerous to mention.

Thank You

I wish to thank Justin, my most supportive and loving husband for his presence in my life, my sister Trudi for her lifelong companionship as friend and confidant without whom life's challenges would have been a greater burden and without whom life's joys would be less celebrated, to my parents and family who provide me with a solid base and grounding to go out and be myself in the world.

 

Journaling Gratitude

In the front page of your Gratitude Journal list 20 things you could do in any given day that takes an hour to a few moments, things that really make you feel good;
Take a walk
Go for a hike
Call a friend or write a letter or e-mail
Journal about your week's goals
Plan a weekend away
Take a few moments to just sit quietly and day dream
Do something nice for someone
Do something nice for yourself
Light a candle with dinner
Plan a really healthy meal
Read a book instead of watching TV
Read a paragraph from an inspirational book

Now on each page of your gratitude journal which I recommend you fill in at night, first note down what you did that day that could be put on the list or is from the list.

Follow it with, at least five things you are grateful even if its the same things each day, and dont forget to be grateful to your heart for beating and your eyes for seeing and your legs for carrying you around all day long.

 

If the only prayer

you ever say is

Thank You

that would be enough!
