Yes, feel your gratitude and be joyful…
When you feel your gratitude, your life gets bigger. It’s a fact of living and a transformative one at that.
Gratitude is a very powerful attitude. And when you let yourself truly feel your gratitude you find that it has no equal as a vehicle for transforming your time and perspective.
So, don’t let opening your heart be your focus only on Valentine’s Day. The power of gratitude is there for you and your heart, every day.
In the past I’ve written about the power of gratitude. Is it something that you’ve experienced in your own life?
Feel Your Gratitude:
One simple, concrete way that you can get started is to keep a Gratitude Journal. It needn’t be elaborate, and it needn’t take a lot of time. Many people find that just writing down 3 things they feel grateful for, once a day, changes everything.
And if you’re still not sure about how this could work for you, here are ten nourishing quotations about gratitude to reflect on.
They illuminate and explore the expansive and transforming nature of gratitude:
