Be grateful for the little things

Be grateful for the little things.

The gift of life, family, friends, sound mind, imagination & dreams.

A few weeks ago, a friend helped list out some of the blessings I've experienced that I'd failed to acknowledge because I keep focusing on some things I've not yet experienced in my life.

Life will sometimes go contrary to our well-mapped out plans. In those moments, stopping to look back and take stock truly helps put it all in perspective. I know it does for me and I hope it will for you where ever you are in life.

Count your blessings, name them one by one
Count your blessings, see what God has done
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done

So what are you grateful for?

Reflections from "As a man thinketh" by James Allen

"As a being of intelligence, power and love, and the lord of his own thoughts, man holds the key to every situation, and contains within himself that transforming and regenerative agency by which he may make himself what he wills." Awareness: I hold the key to the change I desire, I must learn to look inwards and begin to work this principle in my life.

We are victims of circumstances only so long as we consider ourselves pawns of fate, tossed here and there by outside forces. But if you realise your creative power - if you assume responsibility for the seeds and soil of your inner garden - then you become the master of your fate' James Allen Awareness - As long as I continue to think of myself as the victim of circumstance, nothing will change. Take Action/Change - As master of my fate, I will no longer have a victim mentality but turn it around by working on the inner garden of my mind/thoughts
