Grat·i·tude, noun
the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.
My best friend has always been someone that pushes me to be my best. She encourages me to do what makes me happy. She assures me I haven’t screwed up my kids (too badly) when I’m having a “mom moment.” She’s been there for me through thick and thin. She is also an amazing and talented creative girl boss! So, when I saw this idea pop up on her business feed, I thought I would love to do something like this on my own page! Luckily, she is okay with me sharing this idea with you all! Spread the love, as she says!
This is a crazy time of year. I mean, didn’t we just survive Halloween?!? And now we have Thanksgiving to look forward to. I love Thanksgiving! I love that it makes me stop and think about who and what I’m truly thankful for. I know how my life gets so crazy busy that I tend to forget about what life is really all about. If you're anything like me, you have to stop and really evaluate life, sometimes. Enter the Gratitude Project!
What I’ll do is post what I’ll call a gratitude pause on my Facebook page, a couple times a week (pay attention, maybe set your FB to set notifications to remind you!). A time for you to really examine your life and share your own gratitudes. For each gratitude pause that you participate in, your name will be entered into a drawing for a free family documentary session with the winner drawn on Thanksgiving Day!
Feel free to tag or share with friends you think might be interested! I look forward to seeing what you are grateful for, getting to know you better, and to see you all encourage each other to live with a grateful and purposeful heart during this month!
