GRATITUDE | Life is filled with ups and downs and every day we make choices about how to handle these variances. It really can make a difference to your stress and attitude on how you approach and think about the good and not so good moments. Positive mental attitude is one way to create an open door for your thoughts and feelings and taking the higher road when times are tough and life doesn’t seem to be fair. Remember and honour all the amazing pieces of your life – past, present and yes, even the future – and hold your cup a little higher, a little fuller, through appreciating what you have. These important moments of gratitude can alter your state and give you a fresh, clear perspective of what is and are the most special memories that grace your minute, your day, your week or life! Being thankful for what has arrived to you whether it’s as simple as a beautiful sunrise or the smiling face of child. Give a little more gratitude and allow more of these special moments to arrive … Gilakas'la, Emote, Marsii
