My year of gratitude

I have decided that this year is going to be a year of gratitude for me.

I plan to post one thing each day for which I am grateful.

I have read enough self-help-type books at this stage to know that two key factors in achieving a happy life are Gratitude and Acceptance. I also know that a positive mental attitude helps! Whatever we put out there is reflected right back at us. So, I hope that by reminding myself, every day, that I have a lot to be grateful for in life, that I will become a more positive person as a result.

So, to begin...today I am grateful that after four days of gales and torrential showers of rain, it was dry enough for me to go for a walk this afternoon!

I am lucky enough to live ina suburb of the city where I can go for a 45 minute circular walk. There are lots of trees and lots of houses being renovated! Lots of dog poo on the pavements too...but I am being positive, so we won't go there!

With that thought, I will leave you for today.
Gatefully yours
