Thanksgiving, gratitude and appreciation

Happy Thanksgiving to our US friends. Gratitude and appreciation are everything. Without it you can miss out on seeing what is right in front of you.

We can be such a goal/future focused society, and while it's great to have dreams, if we measure our contentment by what we are yet to achieve/have/do, we tend not to really see or feel the wonderful things around us right now.

As Eckhart Tolle said the other night, we will always have some problem, some issue, some bill, some unattained goal to deal with...that's life. If we wait for the day when we are 100% problem free we will spend our whole life frustrated.

I've had some huge wake up calls around this in the past week and am grateful. For the wake up, and for all I am and all I have especially Christian, Jaxon, my sisters, their partners, our family and friends, our health, the collective awakening we are all part of, and all here who share that journey with us.

Lots of love,


Dana
