I am thankful for so many things in my life. Life is just like a dish in which our experiences are like spices that make it flavorful. It is up to us if we want it sweet or sour. Gratitude is what makes it sweet and somewhat precious.

So, here is my Gratitude list.

MY GRATITUDE LIST

I am thankful:

-When I don’t know something, it allows me to learn something new.

-For my limitations, they opened up new doors for me.

-For new challenges, they gave me strength.

-For my mistakes, they taught me a lesson each time.

-For people in my life, some gave me a reason to smile each day, and some taught me to change my way of handling them.

-To those tiring and occupied days, they gave me the satisfaction of doing something productive.

 -To the relaxed moments, it taught me the importance of me time.

Gratitude is a very positive word. It can turn a negative into a positive. When we show our gratitude towards someone, we feel good. When someone offers their gratitude towards us, we feel special. It sets a positive tone and fills the whole environment with happiness. In our busy lives, we forget to show our gratitude for many things. Yes, I said something, not people. Why? There is no set rule that it should be a living entity to whom we want to show our gratitude. It could be our daily circumstances. For example, we can be thankful for the bright sunny days after a chilly week or delicious food at a restaurant to make our birthday extra special.

With my little one, my schedule is not very fixed, and I do not get enough time to write; I get frustrated. I get irritated for a tiring day when I want to sit and write but have no energy left. I sometimes miss my pre-mommy days, but every moment, I feel thankful to God for giving me my two cutie-pies, and that changes the whole picture. That’s what I said. Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive. So, from now onwards, I will remind myself of this gratitude pie.

To see the broader picture, thank our life for giving us so many things. We keep on complaining about small things. We always say count your blessings, but we keep focusing on the loopholes and missing parts that restrict us from enjoying our life. With this post, I will try to ignore the negative things/people in my life that make me sad and concentrate on positive things. That will be my gratitude pie for this Thanksgiving.

So, what are you thankful for?

Happy Thanksgiving!!
