The GratitudeSite

Today’s post is an excerpt from MorningCoach, contributed by Paul Lederman.

It is said that gratitude is the memory of the heart. It’s vital in our awakening spirituality to give thanks to everything and everyone that make us happy. One of the biggest precursors to consciousness evolution is the ability to be grateful as well as to forgive.

Below are a few ways that you can live a life of gratitude and as a result have a beautiful attitude.

 - Surround yourself with the right people. Seek out characteristics such as; spirituality, empowered, intelligent, energetic and compassionate in your friends and acquaintances.

 - Remain mindful. It’s the little things each and every day that make life beautiful. Approach each moment with an attitude of awe and thankfulness.

 - Be compassionate. Which is akin to opening of your heart. Help others when they are in need, and then expand the circle of your compassion to include other creatures, nature and the inanimate world around you.

 - Teach your children and all young ones the gift of gratitude. It will become ingrained in them and they will bring that beautiful trait with them as they grow older and wiser.

Today I am thankful for being part of a movement towards gratitude that is becoming  larger every day and for my husband who some days might be the only person who reads these posts!
