Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

It's hard to believe, but our last gratitude thread is overflowing.
I offer this place as the alternative to the last, that takes too long to load.

I am grateful that we have the option of starting over, anytime we choose!

Gratitude for Shirl and our gratitude community!  It's great to have a capable, generous leader and a group that fills gratitiude threads to overflowing in such a short time.

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. ~ Albert Schweitzer

Just in the Nick of Time.

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

I too am grateful for the new gratitude chain!!!

I am grateful also that although I had “fallen off” the gratitude wagon for a few days due to that old demon depression, I have risen anew this morning to a feeling of joy and gratitude!

I am grateful for new beginnings and that every day we have an opportunity to have them.

I am grateful that the work of Thanksgiving Day preparations is all over so that we can get back to the old nitty gritty of daily gratitude without the weight of cooking and cleaning and worrying over human reactions and family dynamics that can be problematic.

I am grateful that I was able to celebrate my third grandchild's third birthday on Monday, Dec. 1. I am grateful that the little ones are so much fun and mostly joyful little creatures.

I am grateful that I will be getting in to see my doctor today. I am grateful that she is a compassionate medical professional.

I am grateful for the regular rain we've been getting. We can almost imagine the drought is over.

I'm grateful for the information that trickles before my eyes helping me see additional possibilities.

I'm grateful for spaceheaters. Laying in front of one seems about the only way my little jack russell cross feels warm even though I keep my house at 70.

I am grateful for the little old ladies at the nursing home who seem so glad to see me when I go in to visit my mother.

I am grateful for my doctor who understands me and has compassion for me.

I am grateful for the increased energy i had last night to wash the dishes.

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

It's good that we all ignite each other into acts of gratitude and kindness.  It has the result of positive thoughts which are “catching”.  This elevates us from the mundane day to day, which in turn keeps us cheerful and “upbeat”, which must be good for all those around us!  Hopefully this works like dropping a pebble in a pond, thus sending ripples outwards to touch all of humanity………

I am really grateful for my Thesaurus since joining Gaia - don't think I've written so much since I was at college!

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

My computer hasn't been working right, so I don't get on here as often as I'd like, but I'm very grateful it is working at the moment and grateful that it is still under warranty so when I get a chance to make a trip to the city, it will be fixed by the Geek Squad at Best Buy. I'm grateful that most of my Christmas shopping was done early so I don't have much left now that the stores are getting busier. My step-Dad's cancer is back and I'm gratful that is is just in the one same lymph node that it was in before and that it hasn't spread anywhere else in his body. I'm grateful for his doctor's, nurses, all the medical equipment available to make early detection possible. I'm gratful that I don't have to drive on the icy roads today. I'm grateful for the prize we won at my husbnad's company Christmas party. It's a 5 tier set of shelves just waiting to filled up with all our books that we don't ever have enough room for. I'm gratful for all my friends and family, for Gaia and the wonderful people here online at the Gaia community.

Merry Christmas

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

I am grateful for the wonderful, beautiful Christmas tree images posted here today.

I am grateful that I have recovered from the flu/cold I had this past few days.

I am exceedingly grateful that my husband's local physician took the time to call me personally yesterday to tell me that my husband's new catscan came back completely clear of all cancer and tumors. I am grateful that he was so excited to tell me personally how happy he was that even though it is too early to declare it a “cure”, he is very hopeful now. (This is a physician who had written my hubby off as a goner.) I am so very grateful for a God who heals and for medical science and physicians who have gained the skills to help that healing along. I am grateful that my husband did not have to go through months of chemotherapy, vomiting, hair loss or a colon ressection with colostomy as some had anticipated. I am incredibly grateful to be able to put my arms around him and feel the warmth of his loving body next to mine. I am grateful for his loving, kind nature and for the loving kindness of our God who brought us through this stunningly fearful situation to this wonderful place of new hope.

I am grateful that I managed to complete the painting on my granddaughter's little piece of Christmas furniture yesterday.

I am grateful that my friend who helps me with my housekeeping is here today, working away in my kitchen.

I am grateful for the joy I experienced this week as the Christmas Spirit fell upon me while lunching and laughing with friends.

I am grateful that my mother seems to be improving with the new medication she is being given.

I am grateful for the Gratitude Chain and for Ohmsmom who maintains it so that I can write on for so long about all the blessings I have to be grateful for and read all the blessings everyone else has to be grateful for!

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

I am grateful for the healing of Lynda's husband which offers hope to everyone facing such a situation.

I'm grateful for shifts in consciousness and arrows along the soul roadway that say “Your bliss this way”

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

I'm grateful for the abundance that is a part of my life.
Gratitude is a simple way to open my life to more prosperity, creativity and love. As I live with more focus on these goals they become more a part of my experience, and for that I'm grateful.

Christmas time's a comin'

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

I am grateful that I am truly enjoying the decorating process this year.

I am grateful that my house is mostly clean and that I can actually believe that it is possible my house will be completely clean and organized some day.

I am extremely grateful that I plucked up the courage to ask for a new mattress -
the replacement I have been given is a great improvement on the lumpy, stained, bug-ridden one that I have been sleeping on for the past two weeks! It's still a far cry from the mattress my little body deserves, but I am certainly feeling much, much bedder!!!  

Re: Gratitude Continued, part 2..................

I am grateful for positive changes; moving in the right direction.  I know I keep saying it but I really am grateful for it!  And the angels that bless my life each and every day.  I don't know where I would be without them.

Make it a great day!
