Give GRATITUDE a GO >>>>>>>>>>>

OK, we all know we have to deal with the Challenges that creep into the normal aspects of living life on planet Earth. The trial and tribs that make up the Ebb & Flow we call "a day in the life...". We can't ignore these Challenging issues and shouldn't...they actually have a grander, Higher, purpose ( but more on that at a later date). For now let's just say "We have to deal"...The trick is to deal in a healthy way and then move on! And there comes the rub...Sometimes we mere mortals have a tendency, and a very unhealthy way, of replaying over and over again the darker moments; getting  Stuck in this land of "woah is me". SO, let's take some steps to get us up and out of that pit, shall we? I know I hear a resounding, YES!!!

First, take a DEEP BREATH...ok, now we're ready :)  All throughout the day FIND something to focus on that will bring you JOY & then give THANKS for this one, solitary moment, of clarity. I say, FIND, because you are on a mission to uncover the hidden GEMS that sprinkle themselves all around us EACH moment of EVERY day! 

Here's mine for today...and I know I will uncover many more... but for now here is my one GEM!

* I bent down to kiss my newly adopted cat good morning (we're still getting to know one another). She was reclining in her little perch hammock that's suction cupped to the window. And TODAY she gave me a Wonderful GIFT! She, very gently, placing her paw on top of my head...it was such a sweet & loving gesture; one she'd not done before...And inside I could feel my GRATITUDE & JOY RISING! 

Your task is to NOTICE, PAY ATTENTION TO & APPRECIATE!

Now, it's your turn.....1,2, 3....GO >>>>>>>>>>>            In Gratitude, Linneah
