Daily life can sometimes feel like a grind – when we are overworked, overwhelmed and exhausted, it’s easy to lose sight of what’s important and all we have to be thankful for.
So in this season of Thanksgiving, I invite you to take a look at all the things in your life, no matter how simple or small they may be, and see how you can be grateful for them.
Once you start to compile your list, you’ll be able to see the things we take for granted are truly gifts to be thankful for.
For example, here’s a sample list:
I Am Grateful For:
Water
Running water
A glass that holds my water
The slippers on my feet
Soft sheets on my bed
My bed to give me rest
The pillow for my head
My glasses to read
Material to read
That I can read
Shampoo and Soap to wash
That I have a bathroom
A mirror to see myself
Food in my refrigerator
My refrigerator
The knife that cuts my vegetables
The cutting board
That I have a kitchen to cook
The clothes on my back
My coat that keeps me warm
Heat that warms my home
Electricity that lights my home
A Candle
A flashlight
Furniture in my home
That I have a home
You see, the list is virtually endless when we come from a place of gratitude.
May your season be filled with blessings for all that you have.
