With tomorrow being Thanksgiving Day many people will think about what they are thankful for.  Why stop for one day out of the year to ponder what we are thankful for? I say be thankful everyday, every morning, every evening, every day of the year. I have a gratitude journal you could call it a thankful journal. I write what I am thankful for everyday. Ok, I may not make an entry everyday but if I don't  write it down, I say it in my head and many times out loud. Every day,  I can think of at least one thing I am thankful for and I bet you could find one thing too.

Today, I am thankful for waking at 6:00 am, instead of my usual 4:00 am, yes I got to sleep in. I am thankful that I have already fit my exercising in. I am thankful for being able to spend the day with my daughters. I am anticipating being most thankful for watching them ice skate for the first time today. I see a lot of laughter coming our way!!! Get the thankful picture yet?

If writing in a gratitude or "thankful" journal sounds like too much work. Then say out loud to yourself at least one thing everyday that you are thankful for. I venture to say that you will find yourself thankful for a lot of little things. The little things add up to our life and being thankful for our life is the best gift of all.

Wishing you and your family a happy and thankful Thanksgiving.
