Establishing and Developing a Grateful Life

Gratitude, in all things, is at the cornerstone of establishing and developing a life that is purpose driven, fulfilling, satisfying, enjoyable, and filled with rewards. Gratitude and appreciation for what you have been given, regardless of how small, insignificant, or trivial helps propel you into state of recognizing and feeling the angelic goodness that is inherent in being alive, being human, and being “awake.”

As you work to develop a grateful life, you will find that a simple thank you at seeing a smiling face, rising in the morning, falling asleep, aging, feeling aches and pains can change your vibe, change your attitude, and change your outlook. For example, if you feel pain when you walk and say, “Thank You, there are some who are not afforded the luxury of walking,” you experience the pain differently. If you say “Thank you, for the bills that are piling up, for there are some who do not even have the wherewithal to accumulate bills,” the bills don’t seem so overwhelming. If you say, “thank you for the aging process,” you realize some are not afforded the luxury of getting old.
