How can you not be grateful for puppies and their human a good treat is always a good thing to be grateful for too. These pups sure wouldn’t mind something yummy. Bet they would smother him with gratitude hmmm?
What I have to say about gratitude isn’t new! It’s tried and true. Gratitude every day keeps me on my toes looking for it AND finding it. Gratitude is a life choice and honestly it’s saved my ass many times over being in the SH**’s.
Sometimes I want to be grumpy and let myself be a grump for a few. I used to live my life grumpy. It was an endless grind. Wake up on the wrong side of bed, coffee isn’t quiet enough, the weather is to bright/dark/cold/hot… Work is a drag, school sucks, people suck. Go home and it’s a mess always something to clean, tv has to many commercials, going to sleep is an escape- can’t get to sleep UGH! When I discovered gratitude and being happy was a choice and it took some work it was in such a state that I was willing to try on the Challenge of living HAPPY. Guess what?! The effort it takes is SO worth it, so so worth it! And it multiplies spreading to those around us. When I recognized the shift happening for me was when it was a rainy day and a client was complaining about the rain/cold/clouds at the same time I was saying “I bet there is a rainbow out there somewhere” and there WAS! She remarked and asked ”How do you do it? Look on the bright side so easily?” That was my ahHa moment. 🌈 Effortlessly I was looking for the good in the moment and it was a tangible sense of awareness. The next thing I noticed is that we will hit all the green lights as much as we hit all the red lights. Start to notice that you will be amazed! AND say ”Wheeeeee” all through them…corny I know – trust me though, it will change your life. Lastly recognizing- What I don’t have to deal with to be grateful for… now that’s something. Here’s my TIP: Gratitude works towards the efforts to choose HAPPY and living Happy is so much better than Grumpy. Hmm I just recognized something about the 7 dwarfs here-Perhaps a future Blog post to explore. lol
Cheers ~ Make each day count towards another day of living Happy.
