Got Gratefulness?

This blog will be a place to write about something I'm grateful for every day. At least one thing. The idea comes from gratitude journaling, which is held in high regard by those trying to implement the power of positive thinking in their lives. If you'd like to participate, please leave comments and tell everyone what you are happy about in your life today. It could be that you stopped and observed an act of kindness or one of the many miracles of the natural world. Anything positive counts! If you are struggling to find something to be grateful for in the present moment due to extreme hardship, share a past memory or experience that was great in your life. I wish you all the blessings and joy in the world. Day 1. 1/29/14- I'm thankful that I could be inspired by my friend Barbara to do this today. Her facebook post about creating a gratitude journal was an instant winner in my book! We have been speaking on the power of positive thinking and gratitude lately. In a world where folks are so connected by social media this struck me as a simple and profound way to spread cheer once a day. Barbara is also an amazingly creative person that I have the pleasure of working with in a few common creative pursuits! On top of being an amazing friend...she is super supportive of all of her creative friends, often going to gallery showings, concerts, and events they are holding. She goes out of her way for people all of the time and we are all very lucky to have her in our lives. #attitudegratitude
