Be Thankful For Everything 
Even in the midst of the greatest difficulties you will experience, you can find 
things for which you are truly grateful. In fact, if you take a piece of paper and 
begin to write down the parts of your life for which you should be grateful, you 
will be amazed at how many items appear on your list. 
Think about your physical body. No matter what your condition, you can be 
grateful for all of your senses, for the miracles of sight, sound, touch, taste, smell 
and feeling. You can be thankful for the functioning of your body and for the 
health of your limbs. You can be grateful for the incredible gift of the life that you 
have lived up until now, and the great life that lies ahead of you. Just sitting alone 
in your room, thinking about your current blessings, can give you a page full of 
reasons to be truly grateful. 
Look around you at your personal life. When you begin making a list of every 
person in your life, and the good qualities and actions of those people, you cannot 
help but be grateful. Think of every material item in your world, your home, car, 
clothes and other possession, and you will not know where to stop. Just thinking

Think of the wonderful experiences you’ve had in the past, the lessons you’ve 
learned, the books you’ve read, the movies you’ve seen, the songs you’ve heard 
and the foods you have eaten. Think of the places that you have visited and the 
experiences that you have had in your travels and work. Look back over the years 
that have passed and look at the years ahead. Think about the opportunities you 
have lying ahead of you, and you will be amazed at how many things you have in 
your life for which you can be truly grateful.
