Gratitude Breeds Acceptance
Gratitude feeds on itself. It breeds acceptance. It turns what we have into enough, and more.

On gratitude…
I found a new blogger today. Amanda M. shares…
“One of the things that I use to get over negative and obsessive thinking is the practice of Gratitude. I have a book dedicated to all the things that I am grateful for. Everyday (almost) I list all the things that I am grateful for and I don’t stop until I’ve filled one page. On the days that I feel most negative, it takes the longest time to fill a page, but once I have, I feel calm, serene and full of Grace. These days, I’m feeling particularly grateful for the spring time scent of Jasmine that blooms at the door of my office. Aside from putting Jasmine in my Gratitude Journal, I also step outside and take in a deep breath of the sweet perfume, getting lost in the moment and coming out the other side a little more centered. The daily practice of Gratitude makes the world seem a friendly place and gives me a good measure of positivity.” Source: Daily Practice « My Recovery in 12 Steps

Seeing things as they are
““But you don’t know my circumstances. That won’t work for me. I don’t have it as good as other people. You should see my life. It’s a mess.” Religious leaders, psychiatrists, physicists, new and ancient philosophies agree. We don’t see things as they are, we see things as we are. When we’re restless, irritable, and discontented, everything looks bad. That’s because we’re practicing negativity. It’s a powerful form of magic, only the magic it works is dark. Practice deliberate gratitude. Force it and fake it if you must. When you look again, after practicing gratitude, you will see that we – and our circumstances have shifted into a different place.” Source: September 7: Seeing Things as They Are | Language of Letting Go
Press On!
“Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
– Calvin Coolidge, was the thirtieth President of the United States (1923-1929).
