Happiness Directions: Step Eight: Be Grateful

 
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.
It turns what we have into enough, and more.
It turns denial into acceptance,
chaos into order, confusion into clarity...
It turns problems into gifts,
failures into successes,
the unexpected into perfect timing,
and mistakes into important events.
Gratitude makes sense of our past,
brings peace for today and
creates a vision for tomorrow.
-Melody Beattie
 
How could I even pretend to be able to say it any better than that?  So beautiful and true are her words. Gratitude brings happiness!
 
 
All is well in my world!
