How often do you stop, take a moment to look around, think about everything you have in your life, and be grateful? Perhaps you think you have nothing to be grateful for. Maybe you can only focus on the things you want but don’t have. It is so easy to get stuck with tunnel vision and only see what you are without.
It happens to everyone, I am sure. It happens to me all the time. Every now and then, I get a reality check. It is not always nice or pleasant. Sometimes it stings, and sometimes it can cut deep and hurt. The important thing is taking the time to be thankful.
Take stock of the things you have in your life. No matter how much. So long as you live and breathe, there is always the hope for better. Reach out to someone and let them know you are thinking of them. You might be surprised how good this will make you feel.
