I am grateful for this "Gratitude Journal" thread!

This thread reminds me that there are things in my life to be grateful for, to appreciate them, and to try to make a habit of remembering or journaling about them.

My habit and tendency of being ungrateful or focusing my attention only on the negative really doesn't help me.

Fern, thanks so much for starting this thread and for keeping it going!

You are very welcome. I am grateful for your positive feedback and that this adds value to your life.

I really enjoy reading what others appreciate. It helps to widen my own perspective on how many wonderful things I have to be grateful for in my own life.

Today I am grateful for the cleaning I was able to accomplish and how well my little ones played together while I worked.

I am grateful for the beautiful weather.

I am grateful for tater tots. We rarely have them, but they are on the menu tonight and they make me feel like a 5 year old

I am grateful the meds for treating my asthma came in the mail. By mistake they sent a double batch. So I am grateful for their mistake. I am grateful for my nebulizer and this medication and being able to stay 100 per cent isolated to protect myself.

I'm grateful for an online meditation class that I just finished. I learned a lot that can be helpful and to practice.

I, too, am grateful for nature. I have had a Japanese quince blooming outside my apt building for a couple of months. It is leafing out now and the leaves are covering some of the blossoms. Freshly, unfurled green leaves are something to be grateful for in addition to the blossoms.

I am grateful for a fun day with my family and beautiful weather. It is supposed to rain and storm tomorrow, so we're enjoying it while we can.

I'm also grateful for all of you. We are all so varied, but the quality of the hearts and spirits here is amazing!

This made me realize I didn't know what a primrose looks like. I looked them up and they are wonderful. So many beautiful varieties
