Grateful

We are living in paradise, right here...right now. If we are grateful for the gifts that we have in our lives today, regardless of how simple they may seem, we are living abundantly in the eyes of our creator. Gratitude may come from simply eating healthy, spending a complete day away from an addiction, having the ability to hold a door for a stranger or finding joy in the fact that our roof is not leaking. In the constantly changing world we live in, we are never too far from a source of joy and happiness.

Do not focus today on what we do not have, instead lets devote our thoughts to everything we do have. Air in our lungs, the awesome song we hear that intuitively makes us bop our heads, the ability to laugh, sing and the freedom to observe the beauty all around us. When we are grateful for the gifts in our lives this minute, we have the capability to imagine the life we desire. We were all given a light within, freely go out and let it shine today. Let your grateful presence alone liberate everyone and everything around you.
