Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year;
to the honest man it comes as frequently
as the heart of gratitude will allow.
~Edward Sandford Martin
Let us all take a deep breath in, close our eyes and focus on one thing we are grateful for right at this very minute.....
What was the first thing that came to mind? Do you feel warmth and love when thinking about what you are grateful for? This is the feeling you need to connect with the entire day. Scratch that, this is the feeling you need to make sure you connect with every single day. Gratitude is not just something that you concentrate on once a year, it should be something you do at the beginning or end of each day. The deeper you can connect to being thankful for the abundance in your life, the more enriched your life becomes. The more ungrateful you are about your life, the smaller your life becomes. It's quite simple. So start connecting to that which you are grateful for and watch your world widen in ways you could have only dreamed of.
I am thankful and grateful for:
- waking up this morning
- taking a deep breath in without pain
- the smell of coffee
- talking to my loved ones on the phone while they travel
- pumpkin pancakes
- another day to love and be loved
- watching the Macy's Day Parade from the warmth of my living room
- celebrating life and family with many people today
