AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE

Reflect upon your present blessings of which many  men have plenty ;

not on your past misfortune ,of which all men have some . 

CHARLES DICKENS

Gratitude is an amazing virtue  that is so  undervalued . While scrolling through social media , I am always struck by the fact the people from all over the globe, from all walks of life  have become such complainers .  It seems we are no longer satisfied or grateful for life , happy to still be in our right minds ,  and grateful for every little blessing, with the ability to generate change.

I have learnt from my own experience a lot of times when things seems to overwhelm us , taking time to count your blessings is one sure way of changing your outlook , when you begin to do so you will realize just how much you have to be grateful for .

Its so important to cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that come s to you ,too genuienly, give thanks continuously , because when we are surrounded with negativity we lose sight of the things that have contributed to us advancing daily .

No matter the troubles you may be facing ,even those difficult situations have a role to play in pushing you to your destination , nothing is birthed out of comfort , its when challenges face us that we struggle to push beyound 

So today I encourage you to stand to your feet , close your eyes ,take a deep breathe ,hold it ,and as you release  it slowly ,be grateful you can still do that , because many have lost the ability .
