An intention of gratitude

One might think that I’ve really got hung up on gratitude but honestly, if you practice deep gratitude, it’s an amazing thing to bring into your life.  I mean we all have things we are grateful for but have you stopped to look at the things in your life you take for granted?  As children most of us had food on our table, went to school, had clothes and books and a roof over our heads.  The money for these conveniences didn’t come from our little pockets.  The money came from hard work and dedication of our parents, our grandparents, our guardians, all those who watched over us.  Have you ever stopped to feel gratitude for those gifts?  True gifts.  Even as an adult I have often been remiss in expressing gratitude for what I have, more often remorseful for the things I want and don’t have.  In the world of energy and energetic outcomes a simple change in thought, a remembering of the incredible life I am blessed to live, a warm home, food on my table, money to pay my bills,clothes to wear and a vehicle to drive, and work that I love, love, love.  I am more blessed than a large percentage for the world’s population.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  Even having bills to pay tells me that I’m blessed to have the trust of banks and credit card companies to give me money, in advance – so yes, I am even grateful for bills – they show me gifts of credit.  I express gratitude for a bill every time I pay it.  I express gratitude for all the money I have been given throughout my life and continues to roll in and bless me.  Life isn’t all about money but life is all about gratitude – recognition and expression.  It is essential to grow and change, to receive more and to recognize each gift – even the hard ones.  Be grateful!!!
