Sunday Inspiration

ThankfulnessSaying "Thank you"

I picked up my copy of Guidepost magazine today and was inspired by an article in the May issue entitled, Thank you!, written by John Kralik.

He described a point in his life where he was depressed and not feeling positive about his life. Everything seemed to be out of sorts. As an antidote, he resolved to write thank you notes to persons each day of the next year. This simple act began to change how he viewed his life and transformed him.

I was encouraged to make the same resolve as I read this article. Why is it so easy to have a critical mindset, especially of those close to us? It is certainly too easy to lose sight of all our blessings and lose our positive edge. Join with me today and write someone a note of thanks!

Cal you are what you "think".  As a person who believes my glass is half full versus half empty, being thankful for what we have is a much better mind set versus the alternative.   Life is about choices as well are ones attitude.  Who would you rather be around a positive person or a negative one?  Thank YOU!

Joni, you are definitely the best. Energy and passion just come off the page from your posts and responses.

Kathy, one of my favorite encounters happened on the street recently. Whenever I see another person, I make a conscious effort to smile. I had a guy say, "Wow, it isn't very often you see someone smiling like you are!" I thought that was a great compliment! :)) Also love the double smile and am going to begin to adopt it.

I used to take Guideposts and loved it... but haven't taken any magazine in years.  Perhaps I need to take that again.  It obviously has some good ideas.
