Hello all! I can’t believe that Thanksgiving 2010 has come and gone. I also can’t believe I haven’t written you in a year and a half. I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving.
I have been speaking a lot lately and started writing a book, during all that I lost track of time on the blog. I want to remind you that we all have something to be thankful for. Something my friend once told me was to start a thankfulness journal and before you go to bed each night write down 3 things you are thankful for; they could be what happened that day or could be overall in your life. The first day you may only be able to be thankful for one thing, but as the days go on you will find more and more. There is no wrong or right way to be thankful. For example, at night her daughter thanks God for the ceiling and the walls. So start basic and over time you will notice more things to be thankful for. You may also begin to notice all the little things that are positive that happened during your day. These little positive things may soon start to outweigh the negative things. This idea has the power to change your whole outlook on life.
God is real and He wants to bless us. If we are always focused on the negative it is hard to see how God is blessing us. By changing one little thing in our life we can change how we see the whole world. I challenge you to give thankfulness a try.
I would love to hear from you. If you have a question I would love to address it in this blog! Happy Holiday Season!
