When Times Get Tough, Choose Gratitude
In whatever comes next — especially in whatever the future holds — you can choose to practice gratitude. None of us live in an “all or nothing” world. As always, there will be good days ahead as well as bad ones. It is up to us to see the blessings as they come. There will be moments of beauty in your life. Moments of awe and wonder. Warmth and comfort. There will be times of joy, of love, of laughter shared with family and friends. It will be important to notice all that is good and to be grateful for all that is our lives. Tough times call for even tougher spiritual practices to keep us fully charged and more fully alive.
