"Gratitude turns what we have into enough."
- Melody Beattie
Gratitude isn't something I summon to put myself in a better mood - it arrives spontaneously when I see what's supporting me - the chair, the roof over my head, my family, the luxury of time and good health.
I thank my lucky stars for so much in life.
Even on a "bad" day, tea with a friend or a cuddle with the cat, or a strip of paper twisted around my fingers and tucked into shape can evoke that feeling and transform my perception.
Today I'm practicing gratitude by noticing and naming what's holding me up.
