My assigned topic to day is Gratitude. Gratitude means thankfulness, counting your blessings, noticing simple pleasures, and acknowledging everything that you receive. It means learning to live your life as if everything were a miracle, and being aware on a continuous basis of how much you’ve been given. Gratitude shifts your focus from what your life lacks to the abundance that is already present. Giving thanks makes people happier and more resilient, it strengthens relationships, it improves health, and it reduces stress.
I have heard it said that “no situation is is so bad that complaining about it can't make it even worse”. Along the same vein, I suggest that “no situation is so bad or even so good that being grateful .. having an attitude of gratitude .. cannot make it better”. |
