Gratitude Journal

I wanted to share an idea with you guys.
Lately I have been keeping a gratitude journal which is basically just a journal that you write down things you're grateful for.
I find it really therapeutic and I like to sit down and actually think about all the wonderful things in my life. I've also found that it bring a lot more appreciation and joy into my life and my thinking patterns.
You may even think of or realize things that you wouldn't have considered before. I find now that I am even grateful for the bad things that come into my life cos I'm teaching myself to look at them in a positive manner and think of them as learning or growing experiences.
You'd be surprised what you can come up with
If you have a spare book lying around, I suggest you give it a go.

Thats a wonderful thing to do.
Turning negitives into postives is great too.

Its funny because my old english teacher just gave me a notebook "just in case i wanted to start writing again"

Thanks for sharing this, I might just start too. :]

I did a gratitude journal, too! I've been a bit lax lately, but I think that by finding something different everyday that you are grateful for will eventually change your deep down outlook. In fact, I think I'll write in mine today....
