If you want to turn your life around, try thankfulness. It will change your life mightily. ~Gerald Good

Isn't that the case? Whenever I start comparing myself with the Jones' I end up throwing a mighty pity party indeed. I have found the best cure for this, is to start looking around at what I do have - healthy family, a good job, food in the pantry, and some pretty amazing friends. When I focus on the things that I do have my heart fills so mightily! Unfortunately, I tend to get complacent and forget to be thankful of what I do have and start back down the path of what if's. Part of the reason I wanted to make sure that 2012 was the year of gratitude is so that I can remind myself daily how much I have to be thankful for... Every. Single. Day.
I hope that you are all able to find a little more thankfulness in your days!
