Gratitude For 2016

     A new year has began and with it there are not too many of us that wouldn't benefit from a little attitude adjustment.  The best and quickest way to achieve such and adjustment is simple.  It's called gratitude and you can never have enough of it.
     Some days gratitude comes easy while other days gratitude is a struggle to find.  Life is never going to be perfect not even if your the King or Queen of gratitude.  On days when angry and annoyance seem to rule the day, gratitude is all but invisible.  Hiding one's feelings even from yourself is not good and it makes it almost impossible to find the gratitude that will bring you out of such a funk.  When a day seems to be going lousy that's the best time to challenge yourself into finding that invisible gratitude.
     Gratitude has increased my optimism and surly influenced my behavior.  It has given me more confidence and I think help me sleep better.  But for gratitude to work wonders it needs to be practiced regularly and that's something I need to work on in 2016.
