Subjectively speaking, I mean.
It's a sort of cheesy-sounding self-help thing, to sit and write about gratitude. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I actually do this most mornings, writing down a few things that I'm thankful for.
Most of the time the list is kinda stupid -- I'm thankful for the dirty fleece pants that I walk around in every morning because they're warm and comfy. Or for the fact that the car didn't stall out with an empty tank before I glided into the gas station on fumes. Or for some dumb song that I'm going to play on repeat a few hundred times before I get sick of it by the end of the week.
There are bigger things to be thankful for, of course. But sometimes you don't want to dwell on the heavy stuff.
Anyway, it's a funny little practice, to write this stuff down. It's kind of like setting a rudder in the water and adjusting to see that your attitude's headed in the right direction.
Enjoy the holiday. HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I appreciate your time and attention.
Be well.
