As we prepare for tomorrow’s festivities, let us not forget what Thanksgiving is all about. That is to give thanks for the blessings we received the whole year.
When I tried to remain still and reflect on the things that had happened since January, I can’t help but get flooded with instances wherein my temper was really tested. For a mom who has a child (children in my case), it is always easier to get offended or frustrated. Do you agree?
Slowly I came to my attention that I’ve focused more on the negatives. To be able to be thankful, I have to switch the button and see past those instances. Instead, I tried to recall those situations wherein my kids felt accepted, appreciated and included.
Within minutes, I had a big list of people to thank.
I would like to share with you the Thank you note I wrote on the Fresh Kids community page. Simple as it may seem, it really pinched my heart.
In the next 2 days, I challenge you to write at least 5 moments in 2015 that you are thankful for. Then let me know how you felt after.
Happy Thanksgiving!
