What are You Grateful For?

article image placeholderUploaded by @DBPardes
Welcome to the gratitude station. Yes, it is what it sounds like. This is a place where you can come to talk about things that you are grateful for. It could be about a moment you're experiencing. It could be about a person who is really inspiring you any time of day. We can now come and hear your voice that reminds us that life can have little gifts, little moments where we could say, I'm taking inventory. And right now in this moment, I'm grateful

Thank you for being thankful here!

And I think it's just important to think about every day, just to think about why we're on this planet and trying to find our purpose. And having those sense of gratitude can really change our perspectives and what we're meant to do and who we're meant to be. So thank you so much for this question

Gratitude is the key to happiness

And I'm just grateful to be alive. Most importantly, I'm grateful to be alive. After a pandemic, I made it. I'm so grateful every single day. I have made it my mission. So when I wake up in the morning, I say, thank you. I'm grateful I woke up this morning. I'm grateful for my children. I'm grateful for my job. I'm grateful for my friends

And whether it's just like watching a beautiful sunset here in La Vista with my College roommates, best friends or driving back home from a morning yoga class, I just feel such intense and overpowering gratitude for my life and just my life and all the blessings I have. And I can name 1000 of them

Well, I just actually created a swell. My word of the day was gratitude before I even discovered this swell, which is great. It's been some time since she posted it. And actually, today is International No Women's Day. So I am grateful for all of the divine, beautiful women of this world, those who have contributed to the greatness of this world in different ways, and without whom, without we would not exist without women

I'm grateful for the ability to be able to go home for spring break, that I live close enough to my College, that I could just drive back and be home within a few hours. I don't need to deal with the hassle of booking a flight and planning around all that. I'm also grateful for my great boyfriend, and then I'm able to see him as much as I do and that he lives near me

And I'll have to worry about school and just being spend time with them, my siblings and my entire family. And I'm grateful that I have the chance to go home because not everyone is able to go home for spring break. And I'm grateful that I'm able to

Right now, I would say I am grateful for the sun. I live in New York, and I don't know, spring is definitely taking its time to spring has not been springy. So I'm definitely just grateful for the sun, the sun rays, the sunlight waking up and feeling hopeful for the days ahead

Hey, Bianca, I just got back from New York, and I'm living in Los Angeles, and I'm here thinking I was grateful back there for weather and for seasonal stimulation, really felt the buds budding, and I felt the warmth of the sun changing the terrain, especially when I went to Baltimore afterwards. And I saw the cherry trees, and it was just amazing. But then I came back here, and I saw so much abundance in my own backyard, too

So if we can manage in a normal condition, it's given with the gratitude to the roof, gutter the walls, gratitude to the windows and all that, at least there is a house that is protecting us. So in that way, I'm grateful for at least those things that help us to lead our life in a normal way. Yeah. Thank you for this topic

I'm grateful that I know that I have a choice. So for those of you that don't know, I've been homeless. And I finally just yesterday, it was accepted into the homeless shelter. And honestly, I've felt better ever since. It's only been one day, but a lot could happen in one day. And honestly, I'm just grateful that I found a place to finally sleep and lay my head. And now I can do as I please

And I'm grateful for my faith. I'm a Christian. I believe in Jesus, and I'm really grateful for the Lord and what he's done. And I think a lot of us are searching for purpose. And I feel really grateful because I do believe I have purpose in this life. And I hope and pray that everyone finds their own. And yeah, I'm grateful to be able to have conversations and intellectual discussions with people from time to time

I am grateful for my life. I'm grateful to be able to wake up in the morning. I am grateful for everything that I have. And I've learned every single day. Day I walk out of my house. I start each day with a grateful heart. It leads to bigger things. The universe always knows what you need. So remember, always think positive thoughts

Okay, so one thing I have a lot of gratitude for, Ironically enough, is my own anxiety. As I look back on my life, it's actually helped me and protected me and even though at times my anxiety gets out of control. So anyway, I am grateful for my anxiety

Sharing how they use gratitude in the morning! And the things I am most grateful for my family safety and comfort of my home as well as having my job

Every morning when I wake up, the very first thing I do after I turn my alarm off is to feel into the few things I'm most grateful for, which is having a roof over, pouri heads, sitting right next to laying next to my husband and just being grateful for his presence and love and just feeling safe and protected, being with my family, just grateful for having a job at this moment in time

Well for me. I'm grateful for my friends, my family, grateful for my health as it is right now. I'm just grateful just for those things because there's a lot of people that are in worse situations than I am. Much worse. I take adversity as it comes. You have to take adversity in life. You have to take adversity as it comes because it is coming, and it's part of life. It's a natural part of life

Wow. What a beautiful way to start my day. Gratitude. I try and start it every day by giving thanks to universe and creator for first of all, my health, for waking up to start a new day. It's like we have a new ants. Every 24 hours, the sun rises from the time it rose the day before. And last night there was this incredible full moon, and I literally opened my door, looked at that moon and gave things

Every once in a while, I come to this channel just to hear some voices. And so many voices came before you. I want to thank you all for joining. And Korean also just for dropping in. And that moon. I saw that moon, too. God, it was gorgeous. Yeah, it's simple things that invite us to look at life in a really simple way. And it washes away some of the noise. And I think that's partially what the gratitude processes for me

How about that moment to take a beat and say thank you? Because they handed you the next step of what you're supposed to do next. But anyway, I don't know how that applied, but gratitude is the attitude. And once again, thank you for responding to me. I feel honored, and I continue to surf through swell. I love this. I'm blown away. What an amazing platform this is. I think this is just the very beginning with this

I am grateful that I attract good people into my life and that I am in turn a good person to them. I am grateful for that. I am empowered to live my best authentic life. I am grateful for the world that I live in

I just wanted to say that I'm grateful for you. You are one of the most inspiring voices on social swell for me, and I appreciate it. I like listening to you. Not always do, I reply, but I really enjoy listening to you. And I just wanted to say that was a perfect title, especially for you, and I'm very grateful for you. Have a great day, stay blessed, and I appreciate your daily good, good spirit. Thank you. Bye

Hey. That was pretty wonderful to wake up to. Thank you. I'm grateful for every voice that enters me and makes me feel connected community, to purpose, to levity when I need it, to depth when I crave it, and to that sense of contributing to something that's bigger than all of us, which is the sense of awareness that here in each other's orbits when I feel like I affected somebody. That's such a meaningful experience

Hey, first of all, thank you for this particular one, because gratitude is really what makes or breaks our life. According to me, I'm someone who practices gratitude very often, probably every day or every chance that I get. So I really feel like we attract what we are, so if you're grateful, we get more things to be grateful for. I really do believe in the power of gratitude

Today. I'm just grateful for that. There's kind of a calm right now. I just started my junior year of college, and I'm on I think this is like my third week and my second week. Yeah, it's my second week, not my third. But it's just kind of the calm before the storm of all of a sudden, all these assignments are due, you have all these presentations coming up
