What You Need To Know About Gratitude Abundance

By Millie Laker


How grateful are you today? Gratitude abundance teaches you to be grateful for the little things in order to get the bigger things in life you need.

A grateful attitude can help you to overcome the negative thinking that may rule your life. You do not have to look far to find many things you should be grateful for.

One of life's greatest blessings is health. Persons who are no longer healthy will remind you that they should have been more grateful when they had their health. Persons having health are able to start again even when everything else is lost. They may regain lost items and rebuild items of importance.

Most of us should be grateful for the shelter that we have over our heads. Around the world today, there are millions of persons that would be grateful to have only one of the rooms in our homes, no matter how run down that home may be, to protect them from the rain, cold or heat that is outside tonight.

If you are reading this, you likely have electricity in your home. You have a computer and power. Think of the millions to whom such luxuries do not exist.

Are you grateful for the food that lines your cabinets tonight. Millions of children as well as their parents will go to be hungry tonight. These families are not just in third world countries but can be in your own state, city or even on your own street. If most of us do not want to eat what is in our homes we can jump in the car and pick up fast food without a second thought.

Are you grateful for your job. Recently the economy has been very harsh and many people have lost long term jobs as well as homes. Even after losing a job, many are provided for with unemployment compensation. Until they are able to find another job they may bring home a large percentage of the take home pay that they had when working a full time job.

Think about your family of origin Most persons found this family offered love and appreciation as they grew to adulthood. Tonight, children will go to bed in a strange home in foster care. A judge may randomly move them to another home without reason at any time. Other children remain in abusive homes and go to bed in fear every night hoping that their fears do not turn into reality.

Even with so many things to be grateful for, there are many people that live their lives focusing only on the negative things of life. They focus on what they do not have rather on those things that they do have and should be showing gratitude for. As a result of their negative thinking, they are forcing away the very things that they say they want to have.

Gratitude abundance is learning to be thankful for little things in life. This can change the way of life so that the power of those positive thoughts can help you to have those things you need. Start choosing gratitude for your attitude today.
