Stop focusing on how stressed you are and remember how blessed you are.
There are days when life overwhelms us. Everything is a struggle and our stress level skyrockets.
When we are in this place – and it happens to all of us – we often focus on what is wrong rather than all of the blessings that surround us.
A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and sings it back to you when you have forgotten the words.
One of the best things in life is having a true friend. Another is being a true friend. Having connections with different people who understand, support and appreciate you, make you laugh, let you cry and help you remember who you are is an amazing gift.
Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it. ~Eckhart Tolle

Giving thanks. It’s easy to forget and it’s easy to take for granted those people in our lives who we truly care about. When we tune in and feel gratitude it opens our hearts and brings us to a plane where true joy happens. The most important place to feel and express gratitude is in our most important relationships.

I think that a lot of insignificant gripes would drop away. Seeing and expressing gratitude has a way of moving us to step back, see the bigger picture and remind us what we really want. Open your heart. Give thanks. See what happens.
How would you like to show gratitude to the people you care about?
To immediately feel secure with yourself and your place in the world, give gratitude.
Adopting an attitude of gratitude and backing it with grateful actions offers many uplifting results, including feeling more secure and happy with one’s place in the world. Showing appreciation chases away insecurity for multiple reasons. It opens our eyes and hearts to all we have in life.
