The Grateful Journal

Wondering what it is?  If you're a fan of "Oprah", several years ago she told her audience to write a "Grateful Journal."  And last night she interviewed Lady Gaga and Gaga pulled out her Grateful Journal.

I've been doing it for a couple of years now.  Basically it's a journal where I write 5 things that I'm grateful for in a day.  Some examples from my Grateful Journal...

August 3rd, 2007:

These things I'm grateful for today...

These things I'm most grateful for today:

And the most recent one..yesterday March 18th, 2012--These things I'm most grateful for today:

My Mom and Dad

Watching Abby bowling (Big Brothers Big Sisters)

The Pizza Party

Sunshine

Bare-feet

So I was wondering if it's something you do...write in a Grateful Journal!  It's something I look back on now and read and it's something so simple like a Rita's or a family member, but I love it.  Try it out!  It's a way of really appreciating the little things in life that make me so happy.

And I'd love if you'd share a day and date with me about what you're grateful for.  If it's only one thing that's ok, too.  Maybe only 2 things!  Let me know what you're most grateful for in a day in your life.
