"Gratitude lights up what
is already there. You don't necessarily have anything
more or different, but suddenly you actually see what
is. And because you can see, you no longer take it for
granted. You're just standing in your yard, but suddenly
you realize, Oh, there's the first flower of spring
struggling to emerge from the snow; Oh, there's a deer
emerging from the scrub brush; Oh, there's the measuring
cup you've been looking for that your daughter was using
to make mud pies. It's just your ordinary old backyard,
but suddenly you are filled with happiness, thankfulness
and joy." ~excerpted
from Attitudes of Gratitude, how to receive and give joy
every day of your life, by M. J. Ryan
Good morning! What are you grateful for? What
little things bring a smile to your face? What ordinary
occurrences make you deliriously happy? Take a moment to
're-discover' the everyday subtleties that make you
happiest. What cute thing has your child done lately,
who phoned after you had them on your mind... Did a late
summer flower just bloom?
Your turn:
Today "light up" your thoughts by making an extra-long
gratitude list. Keep a sheet of paper with you all day
and try to write down at least 50 things by the end of
the day. (Whenever negativity surfaces or life gets you
down--this is one of the quickest cures.)
Your affirmation:
I am observant and grateful for life's many gifts.
