Gratitude

Thanksgiving Day in America today. I’m not American but I like the idea of Thanksgiving – it’s such a positive holiday. Saying thanks and being grateful for all the wonderful things we are blessed with is not common, nor is it something most of us are aware of. Gratitude is one of those emotions that doesn’t get enough attention yet it’s one that could make us appreciate the people, things and experiences our life gives us on a daily basis.

I am grateful for:

My health

My wonderful partner

My beautiful family and friends

The ability to run and enjoy it

My love of writing

Having the means to travel

A job I enjoy and the freedom to change

The roof over my head

The delicious food that I can buy and cook

The freedom to choose

My ‘can do’ attitude

Growing up in Australia

There’s a really nice poem on ‘Get Rich Slowly’ about being thankful that’s worth a read.
