If you have read 365 Thank You’s by John Kralik you will remember that the author was at a low ebb and had an epithany, to be grateful for what he had rather than bemoan what he did not/no longer had. It was, in a way a celebration of many small victories on the road to recovery of his life and himself.
So here is the beginning of the change I spoke about in my last post:
I can’t promise but I can certainly try. Every day I will try to tweet gratitude. It may not happen every single day but I will, on a weekly basis try and blog the gratitude tweets for that week. If this works it may become something much more.
Who knows where this will take us, but please follow the journey and encourage me on the way.
The tweets will start DoG (Days of Gratitude) and will end with the hashtag #daysofgratitude
Hi Phil,
One thing I’m grateful for is bumping in to you when I’m walking the dog and seeing a friendly face. I keep a grateful diary – six things every night I’ve been grateful for that day. Can be something large or small, no matter. And it works – looking back you see just how much you’ve got and what a great life it is.
I’ve enjoyed reading your blog.

Awwwww. It is always lovely to see you and poochy as well. Love the idea of a grateful diary Sarah – how long have you been doing that?
Years off and on. Lots of inspiration from Meg these days. And sometimes I can just be grateful for not giving in to the temptation to be ungrateful or negative!
