We are doing our “Give Thanks” chart again this year. It’s not too late for you to throw something together. Even if you don’t make a board, you could write your daily thanks on a small piece of paper and throw them in a jar. At Thanksgiving, take a few out and read them around the table. It’s amazing all the blessings we have when we really stop to count them.
The following originally posted at the end of October last year. I thought it’d be a great reminder of how to make your own Give Thanks chart. Happy Thanksgiving a few weeks early. I love this time of year!
***************************************************
Being grateful is an art. In a cultural where very few of us are in actual, dire need, life is expected to run pretty smoothly. When it doesn’t, instead of being gracious, many of us fly off the handle, or tap our foot, or honk our horn with agitation. When things go smoothly, we take for granted that someone paved the way to make our day swell.
