Give Thanks

Yesterday when I got off work I had a treat waiting for me in my mailbox. You know me, I love snail mail! It had me at hello you-- the hot pink padded envelope. My mommy knows me all to well, I am her pretty pink princess all the way!

What was in this pink envelope has a powerful message that I wanted to share with you all. The little bracelet you see pictured is what you call the Blessing Bracelet. From what I can tell my mom got it at my favorite store in Pawhuska.

It came with a massage that says: Whenever you wear it acknowledge one blessing in your life for each pearl on the bracelet. Each time you are drawn to the bracelet, silently find four people or things you can be grateful for.

Be grateful for: you children (which I don't have yet), a flower (pictured above from Jered on Valentine's Day), your dog, a perfect cup of coffee (always a blessing!), a roof over your head-just find something. The more you wear the bracelet and the more blessings you find, the more
you will be blessed.

In one year, if followed, you will be aware of a profound change in your life. That's pretty deep stuff, but I am glad my mon sent it to me. I need to stay positive and not let the little things bog me down.
