“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.”
Eckhart Tolle
As we all begin to prepare for Thanksgiving, it seems like an appropriate time to think of all we have to be grateful for.
It is so easy to think of all we have to do, but perhaps for just moment we can reflect upon all the blessings we have.
When my sons were younger we did “Thankful Thursday” every Thursday night at our dinner table. The boys would roll their eyes and then share whatever they were thankful for from “no homework” to “everyone at our table.” As the years went by, it became clear that this lesson in practicing gratitude was a gift.
Today, our college age sons reference their gratitude frequently. Now it comes in the form of a family text thread, the most recent from my 21-year-old “be thankful that we are all healthy and alive”
I think that is a great place to start….
