It's #GratefulFriday

“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others.”– Cicero (106–43bc)

All other virtues that we aspire towards - happiness, hope, justice, respect, beauty, safety...... are made paler, hollowed, and less inspired without gratitude. Gratitude, the affirmation that indiscriminate goodness exists everywhere, is a state of being, a state of thankfulness. It helps usIt helps us to remember not take anything for granted and see all of the wonders life has to share with us..

Let's take a few moments now to pause and awaken the gratitude in our hearts. Let's use the Sanskrit mantra Ananda Hum - I am bliss {ah-nahn-dah hum}. When I gladden my heart, I awaken the energy of gratitude. This energy uplifts and expands me. By opening my heart, I can feel gratitude deeply. Gratitude shifts the moment by shifting me. Nothing around me changes; I change.

True gratitude comes from knowing that you belong in the infinite dance of life. I hope you can allow yourself to see the wonders in your life today.

Much Love,
