I’ve come to this realisation at the end of the day. It’s been a day in which I have not felt particularly motivated or inspired. Instead, I’m a little sulky and tired. I thought about it and realised — something has been missing from my day.
I guess I shouldn’t have given it up today!
I’m not on a diet. No I haven’t given up smoking or drinking — don’t do either, anyway. And no, it’s not my tea or coffee.
It’s just that I didn’t take my ‘shot’ of gratitude!
Yes, if I’m not conscious every day of the many blessings I have; if I don’t make that effort to say a prayer of gratitude, or think of the abundance I enjoy, I end up dissatisfied and disgruntled at the end of the day.
I love what the Christian mystic Meister Eckhart said, “If the only prayer you say in your whole life is ‘thank you,’ that would suffice.” I couldn’t agree more.
So if you find something is missing in your life — look closely you may have forgotten to take your shot of gratitude.
Cheers! ;)
