The law of attraction, a concept
enjoying high currency these days
places "Gratitude" as the bedrock for attracting
all good things we want, into our lives
Looked at this way, we have so many things
to be thankful, grateful for...
a roof above our head, a source of income
loving family, opportunity to write, recite poem
pursue our hobbies, irrespective of age
Our lovely blue planet with its greenery
sun, moon, stars, mountains, lakes
Our country with her rich tradition
and great philosophy of one global family...
Now friends, for the solid, huge tip
put all these and more of
your special , personal gratitude points,
down on paper, to read them twice
in the morning on waking
and in the night while retiring
You first have to be grateful for the many
lovely things you already have in life
to be able to attract more of what you want!
Grateful people are blessed with positive emotions
better health, stronger relations and more satisfying lives !
