Allow yourself to think about this day, something that’s happened that’s good. It doesn’t have to be a magnificent thing. Maybe it’s simply a meal. Perhaps someone smiled on the subway. Maybe someone let you get in line first. Maybe you saw a baby playing. Something good. Go through your day; go through the time that’s passed. The day, a couple of hours, what happened that’s good?
When you find those, connect to the feeling that happened, for just a moment that good- tasting meal might’ve made you smile. The flower growing where you didn’t think it would grow might’ve given you an instant of wonder and awe. That baby laughing might’ve reminded you that life is continuing as it should in ways we don’t know. Allow yourself to connect those feelings and bring back those feelings of the good things. It’s called gratitude, gratitude.
And if it works for you, say thank you. Thank you, little miracles. Thank you, little good things. Thank you, little moments of smiling, little instances of joy, little times of happiness. Say thank you. And then take those experiences of gratitude and allow yourself to breathe them in, the gratefulness, the gratitude.
Know that as we practice looking for the good moments, looking for what to be grateful for, it becomes a habit. We see what we’re looking for. We shift our moods. We’re more in our lives at that moment. We’re living large.
