A Different Take On Gratitude

On this Thanksgiving Eve, I want to wish you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving.

And, this year, while you are going around the table sharing all that you are grateful for, don’t forget to thank yourself for all you are and all you bring to the world.

You make a difference, in so many ways, to so many people, even more than you realize.

So put yourself at the top of the list this year. Be grateful for the God-given talents you have received that, because of you, make so many other people’s lives a bit easier.

Whether it’s your optimism, your enthusiasm, your compassion, your empathy, your honesty, your love, your support, your nurturing — no matter what the characteristics are, you give so much to others. Be thankful that you can, that you do, and that you are who you are.

Because, in my book, you are amazing!

I am grateful to you and want to wish you the Happiest of Thanksgiving holidays!
