Thanksgiving Week…My Cup Runneth Over

Kathy Streib - I posted around 2:00 a.m. and also included "My cup runneth over." It is such a profound way to give thanks. Since I've known you on AR you have always projected yourself with a positive attitude giving support to members. 

May you be richly blessed. 

Hi Kathy,
I love your post. We don't need everything we want to be joyful and blessed. As your post indicated, the best way to eliminate that PPM cloud is to focus your attention on helping someone less fortunate. That is a sure way to achieve a perspective adjustment.

Have a wonderful week of Thanksgiving.

I am glad that you enjoy my Sunday posts.  I have really enjoyed learning about what resources are available in my area for those who need them.

Great ideas for eliminating that PPM cloud! And I also agree with "You know how blessed you are when you can't decide which "blessing" to write about" - that is so true!

Hello Kathy - I remember a time (way back when) if a post mentioned Brian England, it was sure to receive a reblog from the 🧠plus 💩-ster.  Butt (err but) those days seem to be gone. 

I understand he has a new series of posts that will likely capture attention.  His daily AR appearance on the blog roll is something I look forward to so I can be assured that the scheduler is operating properly - and it sometimes occurs twice a day.  A regular dose of HaHa is good, right? 🤣

Those that can focus on what they have to be grateful for and not be affected or absorbed by the negative frequencies around them are truly blessed.  I WISH I could be more like that, but unfortunately I'm a very sensitive person and sometimes things get to me too much.

Nice post, Kathy. I'm not one who suffers from PPM. When our grands were young and would try to PPM me, I'd tell them life was short and then we died. And then I'd remind them about the fact that more people have less than they did than people who had more. That shut them up quickly and they did not PPM me. (Of course, I have no idea if they tried it on others, but not with me.)

Kathy I have been blessed in many ways, and even the tough times have been a blessing.

For someone who does not eat meat or Turkey the dinner is secondary for me. I just love sitting around with family and enjoying the day. 

Kathy, Let’s focus on all the awesome things about Thanksgiving and everything we have to be thankful for!

Excellent post! I start each day going over my gratitudes. Sets the tone for the workday!

Always good to count our blessings. I agree wholeheartedly with this quote.

An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.
Henry David Thoreau

Kathy, I don't PPMs either, as I have been blessed over the years, and we do need to be so grateful!

Thanks, Kathy, for sharing some of your thoughts and advice.

Enjoy the holidays!

Thank you, Kathy Streib, for your heartfelt reflections on gratitude and the importance of perspective during Thanksgiving. Your insights and practical tips serve as a wonderful reminder to appreciate the blessings in our lives and uplift those around us.

Hi Kathy well my dear you've always been MS Positive since I've known you....which is  along time now!  And if you're not, you sure know how to shift things around and fast. 

Kathy Streib  loved your post and your interaction with Anna "Banana" Kruchten now this sentence resonates with me and it is not just now but daily:

What I need, I have…what I do not have, I do not need. 

What I am given, I will be grateful for.

Great tips for battling the blues! We all have been there and sometimes it can be very hard to get past it. I feel more grateful now, I think, than any other time in my life. Truly blessed!

Hi Kathy:

It was such a pleasure to read your inspiring post, and to reflect on your message, and the quotes you shared. Your advice on "hints to shake the PPMs" was right on target, especially "do something for someone!" A little bit of kindness can go so far.

Have a wonderful week preparing for the big day and all of your company.

Jeff
