I just got this - seems the Skype cut the msg in 1/2. But that is as I needed it to be, because I sit here wondering what they heck to do about my current situation. I need to return to a daily gratitude journal. Yes, I am grateful on a daily basis, but something about writing it down and making it a bit of a ritual is very powerful. And as far as beating myself up - you yourself know that I am WAY better off now than I was a year or even two years ago! So - I am grateful that your message was late! I am grateful for the message itself. I am grateful that I am able to get a message like that ~~ from the internet. I am grateful for my computer, Pooka I am VERY grateful that I am who and where I am. thank you! Christine –

So often the right person "stumbles upon" words such as yours, just when they need it. These words of strength will be the spark that ignites the KNOWING within them that they to can rise and be strong. I am grateful for twitter to bring us together. What a beautiful thing this internet is! Tina,

She focused on the gratitude journal as well. I really like how she incorporated the whole family into the experience. As well, she incorporated Meridian Tapping to reinforce the feeling. Here is a small excerpt of what she had to say: 8 years ago our family started a tradition to write in a Gratitude Journal. Every Thanksgiving, as a family, we get out our Gratitude Journal and write 1,000 things for which we are grateful. We number from 1 to 1,000, leave it on the kitchen counter with a pen, and family members and friends are invited to write in it as often as they would like. Gratitude- It usually takes us between ten days to 2 weeks to get to 1,000. Last year I added a new practice to include with our gratitude journal. Every day starting the week before Thanksgiving I tap on statements of thanksgiving and gratitude. I choose to tap on 25 different statements a day using the EFT shortcut method. I also invited my clients to practice this as well. I was amazed at the benefits they reported, so since then I have consistently incorporated more and more positive statements in my EFT protocol as I teach my clients how to process with positives. <a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2005/11/24/tapping-for-thanksgiving.aspx" rel="nofollow">Click here to read the rest of what Carol wrote.</a> May your day be as blessed as my Thanksgiving Day was.

I know what it takes to rebuild something and also having the courage to tell others when you want to give up. I am grateful this day for life. I founded a non-profit for single parents and so many times I wanted to give up. I'm grateful for strength and wisdom. I committed my ways to the Lord and have completed the 2010 goals. ALL OF THEM. As a single mom of 3, I am alone in a city with a handful of friends. My mother left when Iwas 1, my father is incarcerated and the aunt that raised me was murdered 11/27/07 by her husband. Still I AM GRATEFUL. I am grateful for life, health, strength and peace of mind to love others. This post was so helpful to me because I can "hear" the heart behind the appreciation. Thank you for encouraging others like you do. My 5 life, health, strength, peace, wisdom What a wonderful post of encouragement.
