Silverbirch Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I'm grateful that this week, I was able to do a paid job that I love. I'm grateful the people at work were very nice to me, and that at no time did I feel stressed at work despite being new. I'm grateful that my employer is paying me the correct rates of pay, and has treated me fairly and with respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
journeynow Posted January 19, 2018 Author Share Posted January 19, 2018 Grateful my parents were drama-free parents. Even if they were unhappy with their relationship, they didn't make it anyone else's business or use it against each other that we kids were aware.

journeynow Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 "Trade your expectations for appreciation and your whole world changes in an instant!" —Tony Robbins In the same vein, there's this quote: "Expectations are premeditated resentments" Self-expectations might be different, though. How might it look if we expect ourselves to take good care of ourselves, no matter who we are with or what we are doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
journeynow Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 How can I put this? We have someone demonstrating for the world to see just how powerful it is to believe in your self absolutely. Off the charts self-confidence and self-esteem, it can serve the ego or be used for the greater good. Just think how that could be used for good and positive change if we all had it 100% and reinforced it and acted upon it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
journeynow Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 Spontaneous joy. Gratitude happens. Driving along, enjoying the drive, the feel of the car on the curves, and ZING! Filled with gratitude that someone built this road! Maybe it started as a footpath, then a horse path through the wilderness, then a stagecoach road, but someone made this before I got here, and it's so nice to use.

journeynow Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Online trolls, ads that interrupt online activity, sign up prompts blocking articles, new password requirements, anything annoying that serves as a reminder to step away and find a more suitable path of connection. Getting outdoors, connecting with friends and family, making art, learning something new, meditating, etc, so many better options for my energy and focus.

journeynow Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 I can go outside in fresh air and listen to birds chirping and gaze at tree tops being lit by the rising sun, and I don't need a password. I can play with my dogs, and I don't need a password. I can create art and, I don't need a password. I can walk into a brick and mortar shop without needing a password. Thank goodness!

journeynow Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 Grateful for R, once again demonstrating victimhood. (As in: this happened and her choice is to stew and ruminate, and basically feel bad as long as possible. The opposite might be: this happened and her choice is to do such and such instead of stewing, with her resulting action being her focus.) Grateful for plans.
