This morning I decided to go and do an early spring cleaning of my office. I came across a photocopied piece of paper (credit to page 218) that I received over 5 years ago from one of my friends with the following message on Gratitude. “Gratitude” is interestingly enough the theme of our Group in 2021!
May it inspire you the same way today, that is inspired me!
Wishing each and every Woman a beautiful Woman’s Day on Monday, 9 August 2021!
Gratitude
We learn the magical lesson that making the most of what we have, turns it into more.
– Codependent No More
Say thank you, until you mean it. Thank God, life and the universe for everyone and everything sent your way.
What does Gratitude do?
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.
It turs what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It turns problems into gifts, failures into successes, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. It can turn an existence into a real life, and disconnected situations into important and beneficial lessons.
Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. Gratitude makes things right. Gratitude turns negative energy into positive energy. There is no situation or circumstance so small or large that it is not susceptible to gratitude’s power.
How to apply Gratitude in your life?
We can start with who we are and what we have today, apply gratitude, then let it work its magic.
Say thank you, until you mean it. If you say it long enough, you will believe it.
Today, I will shine the transforming light of gratitude on all the circumstances of my life.
