[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cultivating a mindset of gratitude in children is something most people do not do well. And gratitude is one of the most important things in the world. Several times during the day, I intentionally pause, breathe, and say (often just in my mind) "I Am so grateful for.....". I Am grateful for my life. I Am grateful for my family. I Am grateful for my friends. I Am grateful for clean water. I Am grateful for food. I Am grateful for my health. I Am grateful for financial abundance. I could go on forever. I always capitalize "I Am" as a reminder of the power behind the affirmation. Every I Am is a powerful spell breathed into the universe. Our children have been taught the same. As adults that cultivation of gratitude has served them well when life became difficult. We have always practiced rituals of gratitude in our home. [/quote] That's fine. But tossing off this litany in front of others is glib and smug.[/quote]
