The Mission
Support the well-being of our Steemit community by inviting, recognizing, and rewarding the attitude of gratitude. The Steemit Gratitude Journal aims to focus our attention on the abundant blessings that surround every one of us in every moment, even in the most challenging life situations. Truly, life itself is a gift, and it's high-time we celebrate this, through stories that strum the heartstrings.
The Wish
I wish for you to feel the love and lightness. It's a natural side-effect of the gratitude we feel, when we're having a blast, counting the blessings, being in the state of bliss. My belief is that these things we're thankful for will naturally rise to the surface and dominate our thoughts when we seek them out and put them in writing. I offer my thanks to you in advance for journaling about your gratitude, thereby spreading the love and lightness we all share.
The Gratitude
Seven people participated in the very first Steemit Gratitude Journal, and I'd like to personally acknowledge each of them: @icybc, @bloghound, @melinda010100, @wildfamily, @barbara-orenya, @leighlim, and @justderek. Thank you for your heartfelt expressions! I am grateful for the positive feedback you've offered at this early stage. Your encouragement means so much to me.
Thank you in advance for your gratitude. Whether you share it here, or elsewhere, I believe your thoughts, words, and actions will bring gratitude to others too. Your words will uplift other writers. Your smile will inspire other smiles. May you be safe. May you be strong. May you be happy. And may you live well.
Gratefully,
I would love to join this! I'm loving this idea of spreading what we're grateful for! I found your post from @paradise-found because I have been participating in their challenge. Here is my gratitude journal post: Steemit Gratitude Journal- Grateful for Knowledge

Aw, that's beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing your story, and letting us know a bit about your journey. I believe every single human being can relate with your story, as we all face the pain of learning who we are, moving and growing toward self-acceptance, self-worth, self-care, and self-love.

I think this is a great idea @cabelindsay, in fact I have my Gratitude Journals which I try to write every day and it sounds difficult, but it's not!
I have so much to be grateful for!

Oh wow, 38 years of marriage! Good work. Plus your son’s wedding is around the corner, and you're finding ample space for creativity, and... You’re so right, you really do have so much to be grateful for. And we all do. And I thank you for recording your gratitude in writing, so we may share in your delight.

You're the one who discovered #gratefulvibes, brilliant! So good of you to connect with me. Yeah, I think we're both feeling the fast-approaching waves that Thanksgiving brings. Surf's up! 🏄 Thank you for your awesome invitation to express appreciation for the finer things in life. I believe there's another Steemian who hosts a contest about positivity, and I'll have to reach out to her too, so we can all join forces to keep the vibe upbeat and uplifting here on Steemit. Cheers, my new friend!
