Happiness = Gratefulness

26 Comments/ 474/ 1

One of my practices right now is to list my gratitudes.  It really is a simple thing to do and takes very little time.  Here are 15 ideas of things that everyone can be thankful for.  I would love to hear any or all of your gratitudes in the comments.

Join in and share with me what you are grateful for today.

  1. A friend—Ann–my BFF.
  2. Physical activity that you can do—–walk without any discomfort or pain.
  3. Something kind—a smile.
  4. A teacher—Mrs. Young–my Creative Writing teacher who encouraged me in many ways.
  5. What brings you joy—-music.
  6. What you’re good at—listening.
  7. An adventure—-every vacation with my husband is an adventure.
  8. What you love about yourself—my generous heart.
  9. Something beautiful—-springtime in the mountains.
  10. Favorite food—chocolate.
  11. Favorite book—currently it is Beach Music by Pat Conroy.
  12. A gift you received—my wedding ring.
  13. What you do every day—pray.
  14. Can’t live without–my morning cup of coffee. Well, I could but it wouldn’t be pretty.
  15. Something that was hard but you learned—-how to drive a manual car in a week.
