I love this! The blind Christian hymn writer, Fanny Crosby, wrote this poem when she was 8 years old. It comes to mind sometimes when I realize how much I complain and not be grateful.
.
Oh, what a happy soul I am,
although I cannot see!
I am resolved that in this world
Contented I will be.

How many blessings I enjoy
That other people don’t,
To weep and sigh because I’m blind
I cannot, and I won’t!

Yes!! I started a gratitude journal a few months ago…every night before bed I write down 5 things that I’m grateful for that day. I include everything from the very small to the larger big items. It has really changed my life and view. Even the nights when I fall into bed and just can’t muster the energy to pull out my notebook and write something down, I make sure to at least think and recognize one thing before I drift off to sleep.

In reply to Mardene Carr. We really all have so much to be thankful for. It's so good to be mindful of that!

One of my pet peeves has got to be people who are never thankful. I made a promise to myself to always be grateful because there are so many persons who are worst than I am.

This post is so positive. Yes, we could all use to be positive. Makes a difference to be able to smile just because we can and are happy just to be. I shared your post with my friends. Thanks!
