At one time Opra talked about having a “Thankfulness Journal.” She said it was to help us focus on the positives in our lives and write it down. She said that it would surprise us that we had “great and wonderful things in our lives” when we actually sat down and focused on it.
I know what you are thinking—-not another thing to do! I felt the same way, so I plan a short time each day to THINK about the things that I am thankful for each day. It helps me to appreciate what I have and to keep me from going to that negative feeling that can bring us all down. I did buy a journal and maybe someday I will write in it, but right now a few minutes of thinking about being thankful helps me a lot.
Working with baby gifts is one of the things for which I am thankful. It reminds me every day of how precious each baby is and how thankful we should be for each baby brought into this world.
