Practice Gratitude

Many people who know me will tell you that I tend to write a lot. I acknowledge that fact; it is a habit of mine. I want to share something a bit short for a change, just an acknowledgement of gratitude.

Below is a short list of some of the things I am grateful for today (and every day):

• A family, that has grown to be much more than I deserve.
• A wife, that truly is my best friend and partner.
• Understanding of what a family truly is: people that care for one another and will never hesitate to assist when needed.
• A job where no one is at risk of dying from the work we are doing every day.
• Being able to volunteer and donate to feed others in this time of crises.
• Every negative experience in life for the lessons.
• Every positive learning and chance to share joy with my fellow travelers in this life.
• Every opportunity to change for good the life of someone else.

My goal here is simple. All I hope is that you can reflect on those things for which you are grateful and realize that hope cannot be destroyed. Love is the greatest joy and power in life. The bad will come, but the power of love will overcome.
