This is the time of year that we are reminded to be thankful.
A wonderful way to stay in the grace of gratitude all year long is with a gratitude journal.
You can write as often as you like about anything and everything that you appreciate in your life.
It's a great way to 'naturally' stay focused on what's important to you. And, you can start at anytime, at any phase of life and, of course, any age!
[This [blog] entry focuses on using one journal specifically for gratitude entries only.] What a lovely time of year to focus on your Gratitude Journal. If you don't have one, no problem! Get one when you can. And, if you're already doing gratitude entries in your journal, good job! All of the suggestions are for you to decide what works best for you. Gratitude is about appreciation and it is extremely personal and precious. For when we deeply appreciate someone or something, it clicks something inside of us, that only we can experience/understand. Your Gratitude Journal is where you express your emotions, memories and moments of deep appreciation, love and feelings of blessings.
