I love this practice. <br />I believe we create the world we live in by our thoughts. You can only think so many thoughts at a time and if you choose to think about all the things that are wrong in the world, that's what you will see and experience.<br />I choose on a daily basis to see what is right in the world and be grateful for it.

It is so easy to look at things in our lives and get disappointed about what hasn't happened yet, yet if we look at what we have and what we have accomplished thus far in our lives, everyone really does have so much to be thankful for. I have to remind myself of these things everyday as well and I do find that my glass is always half full instead of half empty. I always look at the brighter sides of things, the possibilities and the what ifs. Its what makes me work harder but also helps me to appreciate my family and lifes ups and downs.
