The Attitude of Gratitude

It’s the evening hours of Thanksgiving 2024 and by now, most people are waking up from their afternoon nap to start on their 2nd plate of food.

Because after all, it’s widely known that the second helping tastes better than the first.

Families & friends are gathered together, football is on the tv & people everywhere are plotting out their routes in the mall for Black Friday.

Yet there’s so much about our world currently that is dark, chaotic & frankly concerning.

Even on a day like today, many people are huddled around hospital beds and praying for a loved one to recover.

Others are struggling financially to survive...

There are people who are mourning the loss of a friend or family member…

And then there are those who are experiencing the crippling effects of loneliness, depression, brokenness & anxiety as they live isolated.

Still, whether in good or bad moments, there’s still so much to be thankful for.

To be alive.

To be able to see the sun rise.

To have the hope & prospect of a bright future is a true blessing.

So, if you’re reading this, please know that I’m grateful for you. Your life has meaning, purpose & is worth living.

May we always, in every moment of life, maintain an attitude of gratitude.
