10 Days of Gratitude Days 1- 4

May 29, 2014

It keeps coming back to me time and time again that we make an impact on people whether we like it or not.  And in a world which is rapidly shrinking, we make sometimes end up making an impact on people without even knowing that we are doing so!  Maya Angelou made an impact on countless people.  To me she signifies positivity and strength in the face of all odds.  Her writing has always been about how her struggles have made her into a better person, a person who understands more.  To me she signified an individual who triumphed over all odds and came out stronger.

Today is the 4th day of my #10DaysofGratitude project on Facebook.  I realize that many people may not follow me on Facebook and thought that I should share the developments of the past four days in the blogosphere as well.  I believe as human beings we’re successful if we are able to stay positive and healthy despite the many odds against us.  So for the next few days lets meditate on the good things in life.  Create more positivity.  Give off some real good vibes.

Day 1:

Mindfulness is all you need to increase your levels of holistic health. When you become more mindful, you start to watch what you eat, what you say, what you think, how you feel etc. Every once in a while, its good to consciously think about the good things. Gratitude is a great way to practice humility and count your blessings. For the next 10 days be thankful for the good things in life. For today join your hands together and be thankful to the family has been and always will be with you. #10daysofgratitude #gratefultofamily

Day 2:

 Today lets be grateful for wonderful partners and all their foibles that make them who they are! Take a moment to think about what makes your partner great and all that they bring to your lives. #10daysofgratitude

Day 3:

Today join your hands together and take a minute to send out positive vibes to all your friends. After all, they taught you loyalty, respect, gave you comfort and stepped in as the voice of reason when the other little voices in your head were bugging you! #10daysofgratitude #day3 #paschimanamaskarasana #vrikshasana

Day 4:

We rely on our family and friends to help us and get us out of sticky situations. But sometimes complete strangers jump to our rescue. A gratitude4stranger changed a flat tire for one of my friends, a lady in France dropped us to our hotel at 2 am, someone gave my friend an umbrella when it was pouring cats and dogs on commercial street the other day…Today lets be grateful for well-meaning helpful strangers. They don’t expect ANYTHING in return, so it’s only fair that we send them loads and loads of gratitude today. #10daysofgratitude #day4
