Thankful

This time last week many were getting ready for thanksgiving, a time to reflect and give thanks. But thanksgiving shouldn't be a once a year thing, we should be thankful daily. 

When was the last time you said thank you? What was it for?

It's so easy to get engulfed in hopes and dreams, what we want and when we want it. Then disappointment and anxiety starts to set in when things don’t seem to be going our way. However, there is a lot to be thankful for. Talking about hopes and dreams, have you stopped to look and  think about how far you've come? How about how you have progressed from the last year. What are the victories that you've had - whether you consider them small or big - learn to remember them and be thankful for them. Don't be so focused on where you want to get to that you become ungrateful about where you are coming from.

We probably couldn't count the amount of things we complain about in a day compared to the amount of times we've felt or said thank you.

And if you're reading this and struggling to think of something to be grateful for, then how about the fact that you're still living. That's something to be thankful for. The truth is how you live your life will show how grateful or thankful you are to have life. “It is not happy people who are thankful. It is thankful people who are happy.” So remember there is always something to be grateful for and if we take the time to be still we would realise it's a lot more things than we think.

What's something you're thankful for today?
