I just came across this article on gratitude and wanted to pass it on…
Hope you enjoy and have a great week!
Though there is no magic spell to keep stress, troubles, and the bumps of life from happening, there is evidence that bolstering feelings of gratitude can change the way you experience those events. By helping you navigate life’s storms with greater ease, more general happiness, and a brighter sense of optimism, giving thanks can become something to be thankful for. {full article}

Thanks so much for sharing this. I’ve found myself in some tight spots recently that have really been getting me down. Tonight I spent some time talking to a friend about exactly this perspective and it really helped to articulate my blessings.
xoxo,
