Being Thankful Everyday, not just on Thanksgiving

Being thankful and grateful is something that I try to practice on a daily basis.  It is so easy to lose focus especially when life throws those curve balls at us at the most inopportune times.  There will always be something that we can complain about.  But in spit of life’s ups and downs, it is important to turn our focus from the negative over to the positive.   Yes, we have had a rough week, but thank God we still have food to eat.  Yes, our car broke down, but thank God we are still healthy.

We have to remember that our children are always watching us.  They soak in every little word we say and every attitude that we show.  If we are speaking negatively in front of them about the things that we are going through, then they may unconsciously take on that negative spirit.  It is hard work sometimes choosing to be positive when that is the last thing you FEEL like doing.  But it will have a tremendous impact on our kids.  I am not saying that we should hide the difficult things from them and pretend that our lives are all peachy.  But we can express our struggles open and honestly without getting angry and without complaining.

So, on this Thanksgiving, even though it has been a tough few weeks – I still have so much to be thankful for.  Check out my video blog to see exactly what those things are!

What are your thankful for?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!   I hope you all have a wonderful day!
