We exercise gratitude by opening our hearts to all that is given us; joy comes pouring into our lives especially in those dark moments we encounter.
In short its a miricle! things dark or troubling trials melt away. Gratitude can heighten our ability solve. it gives us wiggle room to think and move forward. I use the gratitude technique in much of my painting and life. I strive to be grateful for hard times and good times. Weather working on major painting making a simple drawings. gratefulness is a lamp I like to use.
My list of things to be grateful for are endless. My Creator is number One. Below are a few after my number one.
Some of my favorites are, my parents, my wife and children. my teachers in real life and of course my teachers in the many books I love to read and re read.
