Well said! There was a very old book sort of dedicated to gratitude. It’s called Pollyanna, and I suppose some folks dissed it for a long time for its frivolous optimism. Still, I think it’s got some very good lessons. I always thought it might well be produced with Bible verse notes. If you pursue the topic further, you might want to check it out. Anyway, I thought this piece was lovely and well put together.
Thank you so much for reading and for your kind words!! I don't think I've ever heard of it before, and after a quick google search, I know I'll have to pick it up sometime, especially since it's considered a children's classic. It sounds lovely, so thank you so much for the recommendation. Happy Thanksgiving! x
Woah thanks so much for including me at the end!! And super beautiful article overall. Gratitude is insanely powerful. Thanks so much for taking the time to write this!
absolutely! your post is such a great illustration of the real-life results of grateful living, so thank you for that and for your kind words. i am always blown away when i meditate on how the Lord has designed gratitude, laughter, and living without worry to literally bless our physical bodies and improve our quality of life on this side of eternity. i thought now would be a great time to explore at least one of those :') have a great thanksgiving week!
