OK Allison Eness, you asked for it: Day # 2 - Gratituding: #4-6 #4 - A good day is not a weather forecast - I am grateful to finally recognize that a good day is really made from a place of acceptance and appreciation. Just to have the chance to be part of it all again today. Rain or shine, I can make this day as good or as bad as my attitude. The weather and outside circumstances become almost irrelevant. Once seeing this, I am empowered! No longer the victim of meteorology, I have had quite a few more good days now. #5 - I cannot prevent the birds of sorrow from flying over my head, but I can keep them from building a nest in my hair. Maybe not the most apt metaphor for my seriously thinning scalp, but it still works wonders for me. Again, I am not a victim. I am a protagonist in my life. For that option, I am grateful. #6 - Gratitude creates happiness. What a deal. There is always something to be grateful for. I must continually remember: The world doesn’t just happen to me. I also can happen to myself. Nothing is but that thinking makes it so - Willy the Shake “It is not happy people who are thankful. It is thankful people who are happy.” - TY Annette Backshall
