Jumping off the plank
“Gratitude is the heart’s memory.”

Today’s Simple Abundance assignment…A Daily Gratitude Journal.  Every night you MUST write down 5 things that you are grateful about that day.  Here’s the part I LOVE.  On rough days you can go back to your stand by ones.  Thankful for your spouse, kids, health, home, friends, OR SIMPLY THAT THE DAY IS OVER!  Love that one.  We’ve all had those types of days.  I’ve done this in the past but, only for a few days religiously then I taper off and well just don’t.  I’ve always just used a spiral notebook or piece of paper laying around.  So therefore, I really like the authors next suggestion.  Select the prettiest, most inviting blank book you can find for your gratitude journal.  The book that screams, well for me, MAUREEN. 

Now today is a Bronco playoff game so there will be no shopping for me.  I will be leaving soon to head off to watch the game with my hubby’s side of the family.  However, tomorrow there are boys that need socks and gym shorts. So shopping will be in order.  I will find my journal tomorrow. 

Question for all of you reading…Who’s in?  Who wants to jump in and write their “Gratitude Journal” with me?

“Consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life,  And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.”

Enjoy the day, it is a gift..
