Why To Be Grateful

Gratitude is one of my daily routines and finding things to be grateful is not difficult.
Being grateful as a regular daily thing is as easy as giving a little thought to your day and looking for anything good that's happening in your life.

I know, some people have the attitude of "there is nothing in my life to be happy about let alone be grateful for!" But if you look at your day you can easily find things to be grateful for, let me give you a quick 10 item list of what I have to be grateful for today;

1. I have this house to live in.
2. I am able to get connected to the internet and get on Steemit.
3. I have plenty of food to eat in my house.
4. My family is around me and I can rely on them for anything.
5. I own a PC and a mobile tablet to do my art with.
6. I have been married for 38 years this year.
7. I am able to go wherever I feel without being hassled by anyone.
8. My son is getting married soon to a wonderful woman.
9. I have the ability to create the kind of art which I have wanted to do for years.
10. I have lived long enough to see the world change in so many ways and it has helped me gain wisdom to understand what is happening in the world.

This little list has taken me about seven minutes to write and it is not even listing the things that I want to manifest in my life. If you do that and feel the feeling of having that or being that or doing that, then it happens on a frequent basis.

Why am I sharing this?

I found a post on Steemit by @cabelindsay who believes the same as I do about Gratitude and has offered a challenge to other Steemians to write what they think about Gratitude.

Also, I have been writing my own Gratitude Journal and made my version of journal to sell.

on your own printer, already formatted for booklet printing.
