Thankful

Reading from Tuesday, November 26, 2013 yoga class

The following was in the OmPlace Newsletter by Erin Smith.

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire, if you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something, for it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times.  During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be thankful for each new challenge because it will build your strength and character.

Be thankful for your mistakes.  They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you're tired and weary, because it means you've made a difference.

It is easy to be thankful for the good things.  A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.

Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.  Find a way to be thankful for your troubles and they can become your blessings.

So... with the spirit of the Thanksgiving Holiday that is upon us, I want to thank ALL of you who come to my classes, who read this blog, who make me a better person.  Hands at my heart in gratitude.
