My attitude of gratitude

I’ve never been much for receiving gifts that do not have special meaning. I am grateful for the kindness of others but I would rather give it to those that would benefit most. There are many whose priorities suddenly shifted when the pandemic hit. It was really refreshing. Before we knew it, there was a growing comfort with:

1. allowing your hair to show its roots
2. being able to spend quality time with your children rather than rushing them to soccer/dance/football/hockey practice while they force food down their throats in the car or right before they run out the door
3. inconveniencing ourselves to safely connect with others like the 30-something year old man I saw standing outside talking on his cell while looking up to his grandma who’s smiling face shone down at him from her condo.

 
I smile brightly every time I hear and see those things. It reminds me, that all is not lost in the world. We know that once our basic needs of food, shelter and safety are met, as humans, we need human connection.
 
Wouldn’t that be something exciting to carry into a post-COVID world? Will you join me in continuing this upward movement by sharing all of the things you are grateful for during the month of December?
 
Every week I will share with you on social media (connect with me on LinkedIn and follow me on Instagram) my Attitude of Gratitude! It’s simple and you can quickly read how to here. I’ll name one person, situation, experience, realization, opportunity, etc. for which I’m grateful. Will you join me?
 
If there was ever a year, a reason and a season, this is it. Let’s spread our Attitude of Gratitude and start a chain reaction! The more we focus on the good, the happier and more content we are as humans.
