At the beginning of this year we started a Gratitude Jar. Whenever someone feels like writing about something they are thankful for, they'd insert a folded note inside the locked jar. At the end of year we will open the jar and read the messages inside. "Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it." -- William Arthur Ward ♥ Be sure to tell those you love how much you are thankful and grateful for them and what they mean to to you. Be sure to tell them that you love them, in a way that they really know it...so when if they were to read a message you left behind you would never question it. It would only confirm what you've known all along. That is a present that needs to be opened time and time again. To be truly grateful, and to let others know, whether it is a note in jar, a phone call, a message on a wall on facebook, letter in the mail, a smile, giving our time...There are treasures awaiting each of us in our own gratitude jar....when we read them at the end of the year we will only be reminded of what we are truly to be thankful for....go to bed tonight thinking about what are you grateful for and wake up with a grateful heart ♥
