I've been talking with Hadley alot lately about gratitude. Being grateful for the everyday blessings of life...basic things like water and food, but also gratitude for the people in our life and how they bless us with their love and care. I asked her to start keeping a journal, she doesn't write in it everyday and sometimes I have to remind her, but I want her to be more grateful for acts of encouragement and peoples presence in her life than for how many things she can have. In the world today, we are so over stimulated with social media, activities and possessions, it is easy to lose sight of the gifts those around us posses.
