I truly believe words are powerful! Don't you? I know the words we say out loud, the words we write, and the words we think gain power as we use them. The more we use words the more power we give them. So where am I going with this?
I have been impressed to give more power to my gratitude, by speaking, writing, and thinking more words of gratitude. What a positive impact on my life it would be if I chose to focus more on all I have rather than on other less uplifting thoughts. Could this make me grow as a person? Yes I truly believe it will, so here I am committing to you to be more grateful, and to back up that gratitude with words! I feel the desire for more personal growth in my life, and so it's time to do something about that.
Is it a coincidence that Canadian Thanksgiving is just around the corner? I doubt it, but I am awed that it is a natural time in our lives for Thanksgiving.

I want to start a gratitude journal not just full of things I am grateful for but also full of thoughts and findings while studying gratitude.
I may post on here about my gratitude from time to time, I hope you don't mind.
I am GRATEFUL for the beauty that surrounds me in this season.
pretty Autumn leaves, you can tell they would make a fantastic crunch sound just by looking at them. |
I am GRATEFUL for a fantastic family who show me such love and support.
