As you were growing up perhaps your parents or grandparents said to you, “Count Your Blessings.” As simple as that statement may sound, it is quite profound because gratitude is the most powerful magnetic force in this universe. Gratitude is a virtue even to those of you who may be experiencing your darkest hour;because there is always something to be grateful for. Just remember,there is always someone in this world that has it worse than you! When you express your gratitude in life, it can turn all of your negatives into positives. We are so incredibly blessed in our lives, and when you put your energy into your blessings, you will begin to create more of that which you are thankful for. The more gratitude you express, the more your soul is nurtured. For it is in those times when your thankfulness is expressed that you experience nothing short of heaven on earth.
I would like to encourage you for the next week to make a list of at least 20 things you are grateful for each day. Keep your list with you at all times and add to it over the next week. If at any time during the next week you begin feeling like the “victim”, pull out your list and continue writing more blessings. This will assist you in making a conscious shift because you can not play the victim while you are in a state of absolute gratitude.
"To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven."
~ Johannes A. Gaertner ~
