More Gratitude Leads to a Better Attitude
Gratitude Can Keep Us Humble = Understand the blessings in your life. Reach out to others and express gratitude. You will be fulfilled, you will stay humble, and you will help someone realize that they have impacted you in a positive way. 



Live on in others = "Lessons my father lived, that live on through me..." what a beautiful gift to be grateful for. 




John's mother once said to him "𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘧𝘶𝘭." It is that time of year where we really need to slow down and think about all we have to be thankful for. Take a few moments to write down all your blessings and then share with your loved ones what you each are thankful for. Remember to reflect and as the days get longer and crazier, take a second to look at who you are surrounded by and share your thanks.



In most scenarios actions speak louder than words, but when expressing gratitude, words mean everything. Today, share with someone what you're thankful for. When we live an attitude with gratitude we will put more kindness into the world!
