Counting your blessings is an invitation to rise above discouragement, doubt and self pity and discover the abundance that already exists in your life. Every morning you wake up is a gift. Every breath, every opportunity, every lesson and every meaningful relationship is a reminder that life is filled with blessings worth appreciating. Instead of focusing on what is missing, focus on what has already been given to you.

Gratitude has the power to change your perspective and transform the way you experience each day. The more you recognize your blessings, the more reasons you will find to be thankful. Make the most of every day you are given. Celebrate the good, learn from the challenges and look for ways to be a blessing to others. A grateful heart not only enriches your own life but also spreads hope, kindness, and joy to everyone around you. Every day you wake up is another opportunity to appreciate life and be a blessing to someone else.
