Good morning! A
friend forwarded this quote my way as a basis for a good morning..
(hint, hint... if you have any favorites email them to me with the
subject line 'Good Morning Quote Idea'). In any event, I have been
thinking a lot about ways to make more time in our busy lives to "give
thanks."
When
I think of "giving thanks" it is always elaborate... I want to
celebrate someone or the gift they have brought to my life. But as we
get busy, and busier still, often our elaborate plans of thanks, or
homemade gifts, or handwritten notes, sadly get lost in the hustle and
bustle. This quote is a wonderful reminder of how powerful a simple
sentence, spoken or written from the heart, can be. So today I want to
"dedicate" this Good Morning to my staff who support me day in and day
out--know that every day I think of you all with great appreciation --
and I have never closed my eyes without having you on my daily
gratitude list, either in thought or in ink.
Your
Turn: Let's make "thanks" simple today. Tell as many people as
you can "thank you" for whatever they have done, large or small. Buy
some cards, send some emails, pick up the phone, sincerely thank the
person at the drive-thru window -- keep it simple. Look as many people
in the eye as you can, and give them two heartfelt words that make all
the difference -- "Thank You."
Your Affirmation: I am thankful for my life and for all the people within. |
