The Attitude of Gratitude!

Sometimes we all wonder why we struggle thru life and we seem to know instinctively that something is missing. I wonder if you have thought of gratitude! So many things we take for granted and get frustrated at are the things we should be grateful for. As you ponder the following words, ask yourself if your frustrated or grateful. Your Job? Your Mate? Your Children? Your Faith? Your Friends? Your Pets? Your Health? More than likely you can feel both right? Here is a challenge. First ponder the frustration side of all these. Really feel it Ok? Go there completely. Now make a note of how you feel, your outlook on life, your energy, your attitude, your patience. Now take a deep breath, close your eyes, relax, and think over each area of your life but this time focus on the good and what each brings to your life. Really feel that feeling of thankfulness of them being in your life and how grateful you are to know them and love them. Name every good quality that comes to mind. Now make a note of how you feel, your outlook on life, your energy, your attitude, your patience. Here is the question. Of the two, how do you want to live your life?  Today I choose the Attitude of Gratitude. How about you?
