Be Thankful Challenge

For those of you who were members of ActiveRain last year at Thanksgiving, you will remember this.

This is a challenge to change our way of thinking and to prepare our hearts for the upcoming Christmas (yes, I said the “C” word) Holiday.

What better way is there to prepare than to have a thankful heart?!

The challenge is to write a post a day (no minimum word requirement) sharing something that you are thankful for. It can be something GREAT or something small. It’s up to you.

Then, if you feel like it, post your blog post in the We Be Thankful group and comment on a few other’s post while you’re there. You can also put it in the Be Thankful Challenge on the ActiveRain Channel for 25 extra points (if your post has 50 words or more).

There are no points earned for this challenge. The reward is that by the time Thanksgiving is here, you will be overflowing with Thankfulness and ready to celebrate the Christmas Season.

Stay tuned for the Christmas Photo Challenge that is coming up. I am going to give my own GRAND PRIZE for that one!

Please re-blog! It would great to see ActiveRain bombarded with thankful hearts!

I'm surprised this isn't featured. WIth so many good things that could come out of this -- thanking instead of whining -- this deserves more attention!

Not too late to suggest, I hope!
