Your Daily Dose of Gratitude ~ Day 581

Gratitude For Your Life In General

-------------------------------------------------

As the holidays arrive it is easy to become distracted by our desire for perfection. It might be the need to craft a festive environment, always be in an upbeat mood, or simply the desire to find just the right gifts for everyone in our lives. Even though these things can be positive, if we start putting too much pressure on ourselves during this season, we are much more apt to forget what truly is important â€" celebrating our lives with the people we care about.

For many of us this time of year can stir up a host of mixed emotions. For example, we might feel a tinge of nostalgia for past holiday celebrations, when times were simpler, or a sense of being let down due to the unmet expectations we have for ourselves and others. No matter what our feelings are, they are likely to be caused by an unrealistic sense of what the holidays should mean for us. Rather than thinking of this season as a time for finding the perfect gift or hosting the best party, we can get so much more out of the holidays if we create a personal inventory of the things that matter most to us. With each item we add to our list, we can then set the intention to use this season as a time to consciously rejoice in and express our appreciation for the blessings we have. The more we are able to let go of our traditional expectations for the holidays, the more open we will become to the bounteous spirit that lies within us.

Our true enjoyment of this season will only come from looking within and reflecting on the deeper spiritual significance the holidays have for us. Infusing our holiday activities with a sense of gratitude will bring a greater level of enjoyment to our life and also help us extend loving and kind energy to all we encounter. It is this spirit that will allow us to truly celebrate by sharing our greatest gifts â€" infinite love, peace, understanding, and joy â€" with those around us. (DailyOM) - www.dailyom.com

Cherishing Your Challenges & Challengers

The last of the human freedoms is to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances. (Victor E. l)

------------------------------------

Cherishing The Moments

------------------------------------

…people just don’t notice enough about what’s going on around them. You can absorb and learn from everything around you all the time, you know, ask people questions all the time… (Jerry Seinfeld, appearing on “Enough Rope†live TV show, 26 November 2007) - www.abc.net.au/tv/enoughrope/transcripts/s2099480.htm

Gratitude For Who You Are

----------------------------------------

The key to understanding is in oneself. One who pays attention only to knowledge from outside will lose sight of one's own potential. (Juzhi)

-----------------------------------------------------------

What We Say, Be, & See â€" We Become

------------------------------------------------------------

You have the power in the present moment to change limiting beliefs and consciously plant the seeds for the future of your choosing. As you change your mind, you change your experience. (Serge Kahili King)

---------------------------------------------------------------

Neutralizing Negativity & Preferring Positivity

----------------------------------------------------------------

Internal and external are ultimately one. When you no longer perceive the world as hostile, there is no more fear, and when there is no more fear, you think, speak and act differently. Love and compassion arise, and they affect the world. (Eckhart Tolle) - www.eckharttolle.com

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kindness Is The Greatest Way To Display Your Gratitude

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything is given to me and I pass it on. You must give if you want to receive. Let the center of your being be one of giving, giving, giving. You can't give too much, and you will discover you cannot give without receiving. (Peace Pilgrim)
