Gratitude

Gratitude is the least of the virtues, but ingratitude is the worst of vices.  ~Thomas Fuller

There is not a more pleasing exercise of the mind than gratitude.  It is accompanied with such an inward satisfaction that the duty is sufficiently rewarded by the performance.  ~Joseph Addison

Gratitude is the music of the heart, when its chords are swept by the breeze of kindness.  ~Author Unknown



Today's theme is Gratitude.  How can one be happy if they are not thankful for everything they have?  I know I'm so thankful for so many things, but I forget.  How can one forget?  It is crazy I know.  So every day I'm going to attempt to try to think of one thing I'm thankful for, the funny thing is once I started concentrating on this I can think of a dozen or more things I'm thankful for and that fills my heart.  How blessed am I to have so many things to be thankful for that I can't narrow it down to one thing a day.   What a terrible problem to have :o) and what a great way to start out each and every day.
