With the busyness of Thanksgiving week you may have missed this inspiring blog, so here it is again. If you find you need a lift, drink from the pure springs rather than muddy waters!

I am off to a late start with the 10 days of gratitude challenge. I'm actually grateful that I found the challenge today. Reading some of the wonderful posts kind of brought me to my senses. 

The last few weeks have been an enormous challenge for me. I am not talking about anything to do with politics, but if you add that in, wow... it has been more than a rough road to hoe!

You know when that monster inside of you takes hold, and you just can't think of one single thing to be grateful for? I was running through my gratitude list trying to snap myself out of it. Each time I would think of something I am normally grateful for, there just didn't seem to be any gratitude there. 

Boy is that frightening!

Then I ran across a few of the gratitude posts for Day 2. With each post I felt lighter and lighter inside. And I only read 6 of  them! Imagine how I will feel by the end of the challenge when Thanksgiving arrives! 

So for today, for this moment in time, I am very grateful for Debbie Reynolds  and her wise gratitude challenge. I'm grateful to Bob Stewart for supporting it. I'm grateful for the posts I have read so far, Belinda SpillmanKathleen DanielsBarbara Todaro,  Wanda Kubat-Nerdin, Rebecca Gaujot, the Go To Realtor®  and Myrl Jeffcoat. And of course I am off to find some more of you to be grateful for today and beyond. When you see my comment, you know I am grateful for you! Thank you.

I seem to have found my gratitude that I lost along the way! And I am very, very grateful.

And to think, I wanted to cancel Thanksgiving this year. Wow...

The posts of gratitude were very uplifting. From the smallest things to some huge life changing events, it was good to feel and read the true sense of thanksgiving coming from the members.
