Gratefulness
What if you discovered that living with awareness and intention, focusing on what makes you feel alive, grateful and in wonder, allows you to: live longer, inspire others, experience joy, hold pain and grief with compassion, and deepen love, generosity and respect for all life?
Grateful living is way of life that does all of the above and, in so doing, contributes to a peaceful, thriving, and sustainable world – held as sacred by all.
In considering tools for living gratefully, we offer the following practices and questions to accompany and enrich your experience of our video, A Grateful Day. We encourage you to watch the video, try these practices and reflect on the questions on your own, with family and friends, or in a gratefulness group…
Thank you for opening your eyes and heart to truly having, and contributing to, a grateful day and a grateful world!

It’s taken me 51 years to come to a place of gratefulness but I’m grateful that I have finally made it.
I am grateful for all the opportunities and situations which stretch me out of my comfort zone.
I am grateful for my job which is allowing me to work from home during this pandemic and make a living to care of myself and my loved ones.
I am more grateful than I ever knew a year ago, for all the technology I have been using to help me benefit from my life staying in the home.
I am grateful, just to be alive. Having connected to my distance family through the modern communication tool to see and follow they are also okay. I witness my life and surrounded, moment to moment, that is enough. I love life.
I believe that it is in the face of pain where living GRATEFULLY is actually most important. I have lived with chronic pain & illness for over 20 years and have most definitely had my ups and downs with it, understandably. It was after a near-death experience that I had 8 years ago due to abusing alcohol as my “pain relief”, that I found how crucial it was to incorporate connection, mindfulness, and GRATEFULNESS into my life in order to find joy and fulfillment. Leading up to that, I had lost all sense of self-worth and value and based it purely on the abilities that I’d lost due to my condition. It was this focus on the LACK OF that led me to the victim mentality that was nearly my demise. Today, through a very intentional GRATITUDE practice, I embrace who I am and what I have to offer the world which is so much more than what my physical capabilities are. That “lack” that I had been so focused on years ago has shown me the richness of my life of abundance today. Through my struggles, I have found my strength. And even on those days where the pain is so intense that it can take my breath away, it is through GRATEFULLY living that I know how much more I am than my pain and how much more I have to offer the world because of it.
