Day #19

“Share your appreciation.”

Monday’s task was to be grateful and what a pleasant pursuit it was. But what we must not forget is, before we can even be grateful for things, we must appreciate!

We all know how it feels to be appreciated, that lovely feeling that warms our heart. We should naturally desire to return that feeling back to them. In light of that, our task today is to send a card to someone we adore as a way of showing our appreciation. Helping to elicit their qualities by reminding them how great they are and expressing how much we admire them.

Take a moment to reflect on your life; your friends, your family, your talents… realise you are blessed with all these wonderful things.

So, APPRECIATING WHAT YOU HAVE is essential.

Day #17

"Write down 10 things that you are grateful for. Keep them near you to remind you."

A fresh week; a great task to begin it with =)

We read the paper, we watch the news, we catch sight of the world and how it is... bounded with pain and suffering, and unceasing devastation. We look at our lives and the things we have; the fortunes we take for granted without realisation.

We possess such full plated lifestyles that sometimes things like these tasks are never given a chance. We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in London but there are times when I wish we did... not for the big feasts but for the values the day is dedicated to.

So, today, my fiance and I took some effort and time out to think about what we are thankful for and shared our gratitude to one another; we listened and listened intently to the beautiful words we both expressed for the things that encompasses our lives.

Now, it is time to recognise the beauty of your own lives... take a moment to be THANKFUL!

P.s. Carrying this out was a very uplifting experience.
