I told my fiancé how grateful I was for him just yesterday. I need to do this more often. I always tell my girls that I love them but I should include how grateful I am for them as well. This is a nice reminder.
I know I need to do this more often. Thanks for the reminder. On his Bday this year I thanked my friend Mike for all that he does. When we moved into our new house he found a bike and antique rocking chair in the attic and fixed them for me. He can be very thoughtful 💕.
As many of you noted, I would also like to chime in and thank all of you for being here too🌞
To my godson about a week ago when he came to visit together with his new girlfriend. We spoke about our inner loving and kind connection which has been since his early childhood more than thirty years ago; to my dear sister when we met at the occasion of the 96th birthday of our father; to my dear friend since about thirty years when we recently spoke at the phone sorting out something where she felt a bit of fright and wanted to reassure that all will be ok with our next meeting and we both felt ans spoke about our inner heartfelt and reliable connection. I am grateful for so many more people present in my life. When passing a street sweeper when walking to my office in the morning, I always greet them and often say Thank you as a heartfelt expression of my gratitude for the work they do for all of us in order for beauty and a clean siedwalk, avoiding slipping out on wet leaves. Such a beautiful question. Thank you!
Yes,
dear Ose . . .
I too,
think it’s important to show service workers
that we appreciate what they do.
I’m sure
they don’t get thanked enough . . .
bless you. ♥
I thanked both my dear daughter & cousin last week for all the love, generosity & joy they blessed me with on my birthday. I felt so much love from each one of them in their own unique ways. I feel so blessed to have their love in my life. ♥️♥️
P.S. I appreciate All who participate here.
I have learned so much from you all sharing your life’s journeys & your wisdom.
This is a beautiful community.
Thank you kindly. 🕊️♥️
I tell my sister-in-law regularly how much she means to me, and how much she helps me with my husband (her brother). I don’t know what I would do without her.
I’m grateful for the universes alive presence and I truly appreciate being able to give you all of my burdens and all these thoughts. I know you are here and even if I am blind you still hold my hand. Thank you. 🙏
I’m grateful for the presence of all of you here. You are choosing to practice gratefulness in a world full of distractions and urgencies, and holding space for me to do the same. Thank you for showing up here again and again.
Thank you for the reminder. I don’t do this enough. I’ll start with all of you here, thank you all who share and contribute in this forum. I get so much from your wisdom and your lived experiences. Starting my day here with you all, with gratitude and contemplation, is such a beautiful practice. 🙏
When my husband and I went to Carowinds (an amusement park nearby) the other day… we had just gotten off of a scary/thrilling ride and were both laughing. I felt so grateful in that moment. For our love, our common interests, and just doing life together. And I let him know 🙂
Without common interests, I don’t think I’d be with my husband at all. He came into my life at the perfect time, and I’m grateful for all of the things that we both love!
Sunnypatti, this reminds me of Ngoc. She came into my life when I was 28 and she was 25 which is 5 years ago. Knowing that both of us are hard to find someone, it was perfect timing, and we fell right into each other’s laps.
You two seem like a perfect pair. Love is the greatest gift!

I don’t remember the exact time I told my mother-in-law how grateful I am to be her daughter-in-law, but I do let her know during our conversations, especially when we talk about people who suffer because of difficult in-law relationships. My mother-in-law is friendly, kind, and positive. Sometimes I feel a bit frustrated by her being too positive, as I think she might not fully understand how I feel. However, her advice to Loc and me for building a better life is always valuable.
I too,
am grateful,
dear Ngoc,
for the relationship I had with my mother in law.
She was wonderful to me,
and accepted me as a real family member.
Thank you
for bringing her to my mind. ♥
During the interview yesterday, the hostist had Ngoc and I talk about our love life too, of course. I let Ngoc know how grateful I am to have her in my life when the guy asked me about how my life has changed after marrying her. I talked about how my life was bland and carrying a heavy burden in my mind during the time when I was single. Having Ngoc makes my life fuller, and we can share just about anything to each other at anytime.
Although it may seem like a blind one talking about color, your peaceful gesture and loving expression is really heartwarming, both appreciating what you mean to each other. Thank you.
About a week ago I was surprised to receive a flower delivery. A dear friend, Maryellen, had sent me flowers to thank me for her birthday gift. (she turned 80 – I had gotten her an $80 GC to a fav restaurant) I was completely shocked she sent me flowers. Maryellen always send me flowers on my Mom’s death anniv, never forgets. She is such a giving thoughtful person. I told her how grateful I was she was in my life.

I do that every Sunday when my son comes to visit. I thank my daughter every time she calls and I tell neighbors and friends I appreciate them often.

Indeed!

and the same to you too Drea 🙂
Thank you for appreciating us and I’m happy you too are here Drea.
This past Monday. I told my husband I appreciated his presence.
Thank you for the reminder. I don’t do this enough. I’ll start with all of you here, thank you all who share and contribute in this forum. I get so much from your wisdom and your lived experiences. Starting my day here with you all, with gratitude and contemplation, is such a beautiful practice. 🙏
I feel the same, so thank you Charlie 🙂

Sunnypatti, common interests goes a long ways. Relationships can quickly become heavy when people are close whether it’s personal or professional.
Without common interests, I don’t think I’d be with my husband at all. He came into my life at the perfect time, and I’m grateful for all of the things that we both love!

My Ngoc, I still remember 2 years ago at our turning point. You needed to work on your attitude. I needed assertiveness. We need resilience.
During the interview yesterday, the hostist had Ngoc and I talk about our love life too, of course. I let Ngoc know how grateful I am to have her in my life when the guy asked me about how my life has changed after marrying her.

No problem, Ose.
Love you, Loc 😘
Love you too, my Ngoc.

The world needs more good folks like Maryellen. Lovely.
Oh that is beautiful that she does that 🌺
Awww, sweet.♥️ Thanks for sharing Michele.
This is a lovely story
