Many people living in recovery discover that the continuation of gratitude more often than not occurs on a daily basis. It tends to occur for some people even before they have shaken the cobwebs out of their thoughts. It is a simple thank you often in appreciation for one more day. This usually coincides with the condition of our spiritual health as we face each new day as it comes. Who, or whatever we thank, is a personal decision. Also there are times of silent gratitude. These are times when we just seem to go with the flow. We are content and things are just plain going well. Perhaps, at these times, we don’t recognize that things are going well, but we pass along good will to other people. This is the nature of spiritually healthy people. Such people will even pass along good will for others even when things are not going all that well. This is another continuation of gratitude. Grateful people are a gift for others. Every once in while we can count our blessings. What we will realize is gratitude is a practice. Peace.
