The Gratitude Game

A few years ago my friend Saint Patrick Mathieu* had this as his 'status line' on Facebook:

"There's a *very* interesting vibe in the air this morning."

As it had been Thanksgiving Day in the U.S., perhaps what he was feeling was a moving ridge of gratitude. 301,139,947 people sitting down to dinner together - or at least honouring the thought of Thanksgiving Day Day - would put up quite a moving ridge in the corporate consciousness!

I spent much of Thanksgiving Day thought about what I was thankful for --- and discovered it was EVERYTHING! I believe Gratitude is one of the most powerful Negro spiritual patterns we can take part in. Anything can be shifted in an blink of an eye when we are grateful.

When my Mother realized I loved to read, she guided me toward classic books. One of them was Pollyanna, and with that book, I developed a Life Policy that have got got served me well.

You might have heard people state with derision "Don't be such as a Pollyanna." They haven't read the book or seen the movie! Pollyanna was taught a game by her father called The Glad Game - no substance what happened, she was to happen something to be glad about. She changed the consciousness of a batch of people using that Game.

The Glad Game could be called The Gratitude Game and is something we can all play. Stuck in traffic? Be thankful you have got a auto to drive. Woke up feeling depressed? Be thankful you woke up and that "this too shall pass!" Been ill? Be thankful for all the picks we have got medically. Feeling poor? Be thankful for what you make have got - and that you dwell where you live. In a big part of our world, what we see "poor" would do other people very happy!

It's easy to be thankful when things are going well. The Game acquires more than ambitious when they are not! However, I cognize you - you're up to the challenge, eh! As when playing most games - preparation is necessary. We have got to consciously take to be grateful. We have got to set up routines, do it a habit. Train your consciousness to be in gratitude for each experience before you can judge it! Start today! What, right in this moment, are you thankful for?

I am thankful for the Life that flowings through each of us - that Giver of all gifts. Iodine am thankful we are walking this Way together - even if it's only for a moment.

Let's drive that "vibe" and go through it on!

SPIRITUAL mind TREATMENT

Gratefully I observe the Power Within Everything. Iodine observe my consciousness of It and how It works through and as me.

I now take to play The Gratitude Game. In every experience I happen something to be thankful for, no substance how negative the experience might look to be. As Iodine play, the Powerful Presence uncovers the approvals in each experience, and I am even more than grateful.

I give thanks I have got got the consciousness to pay attending to all I have to be thankful for. I observe Nature and all Life. Iodine observe the people, known and unknown, that environ me. I observe my ideas and feelings, thankful to cognize these are my originative tools. Iodine give thanks for Life and all the ways It shows through me.

I am a thankful individual and this is good, very good.

I let go of these words into the Law of Mind, knowing they are transformative. And so It is.
