Choosing Gratitude

Choosing Gratitude

Trouble doesn’t last always- but life may look permanently different and may never be the same. There can still be beauty in the change. A grateful heart allows that beauty to sink in, truly warming our spirit and lives. The season of life may make nature’s season difficult to understand or relate to, but we have a choice…always! Choose thanksgiving and more gratitude will come into your life. Give to receive! Be thankful in all and life will give beauty back to you!
