Do you ever find yourself complaining just because you can? These days, I’m complaining too much. I work too much. I don’t make enough money. I want a full-time job. Blah blah blah. So I’m going to work on being more grateful. Grateful that I have a job. Grateful that my co-workers are funny, nice, and a blast to work with. Grateful that my husband’s job allows us to do a lot of things. Grateful that I have wonderful family (including my in-laws who are graciously letting me live with them for a year). Grateful that my friends have been so supportive of me and willing to participate in my touristy adventures. Just more grateful for the life that I get live.

Well said, Lisa. Yes, I moan all of the time – then all of a sudden I realise just how much I have to be thankful for and should not be moaning at all. š
Jen says
I love this! š It is always nice to sit back and realize everything we have to be thankful for.

Yes. This is me. I’m such a negative Nancy. I try to make myself be more grateful, but honestly, unless I have that thought in my mind and I’m telling myself to do it, I can be an ass.
