Recently I noticed something great that I saw on twitter which I wanted to share here. A lady that I follow does something called "evening gratitude," where she reflects on things she was happy about that day. It can be something as simple as that cup of Earl Gray tea you had, or a movie that lifted your spirits. She had no idea I'm sure that her positive attitude was rubbing off in the way it did, but I just adored that idea. It made my heart happy to read her gratitude, and reminded me of life's beautiful moments which often go unnoticed.
When you have any chronic illness you begin to cherish the small moments of life. Sometimes though, amidst the pain, we can forget to still be grateful for it. When you write down or say your evening gratitudes before going to bed you are ending your day on a positive note. Continually doing this seems to cross over into the next day & so on and so forth. It's a small gesture, but I think everyone, healthy or not can benefit from it.
My evening gratitude: a surprise Edible Arrangement, finding something I thought I had lost, & noticing the sunset this evening.
And for yesterday's gratitude ... I AM OFFICIALLY C DIFF NEGATIVE! I've been fighting this since January & I can't be happier to actually see test say negative. Very very grateful. God is good.
