Aren’t
we blessed to be alive? Isn’t it wonderful to be human: To give and
receive love, to have dreams and aspirations, to learn and change?
Let’s take time together to see what bountiful blessings we have today,
instead of choosing to feel down or bad about what we don’t. Stop for
five minutes, right now, and let’s together list some of our blessings.
Here are a few of mine, and some that my clients over the years have
thought of. See if you relate to any of these, and can add a few, too.Please share your gratitude and blessing by writing a comment.

  • Life itself. I woke up this morning, alive again.
  • A roof over my head.
  • A comfortable bed,
  • My family.
  • The ability to read and write.
  • My faith in God.
  • Great legs.
  • Eyes to see.
  • Ears to hear.
  • The sense of touch.
  • The sun and clouds.
  • A good lung-full of air.
  • A smile on someone’s face.
  • A good problem to deal with.
  • Make a written list for yourself. Like the one above. Get a pen and
    paper right now, and do it. Think about each one, and thank your
    Creator for what you have.
