I haven't done gratitude lists for many years, but people in meetings always say I sound really grateful. My 'trick' for getting grateful, (or anything else for that matter) is 'constant thought of others'. As in ' Our very lives, as ex-problem. drinkers, depend upon our CONSTANT thought of others. and how we may help meet their needs.' Works for me! Yes I am nauseatingly positive a lot of the time! Everything I ever learned or gained seems to stem directly from an attempt to pass on what I have learned to the people most in need of help, who are 'ready'. Just thought I'd share that. Have a nice Sunday!
Freedom from people pleasing.. I hear ya! Now I am pleased to please people when and how I please not because I feel like I have too anymore.I love all my blogger buddies too ..including you Trudge:) Great post,Thanks for sharing~
I love your lists! They remind me to think about what I have to be grateful for, and it's sooo much more than I realize, most of the time. I'm grateful for YOU, Trudging.
