APPRECIATE
Hello Friends, It's bright and early this sept. morning...hot coffee on, sun peeking out and a nice morning breeze coming through the windows..it's the little things and moments that I appreciate. Most mornings that I wake up in pain, I STILL appreciate waking up alive with breathe in my lungs. Nowadays it seems people in general do not appreciate life or even others for that matter. Do something nice for someone and at least half the time the person looks at you like your crazy. Being Nice and appreciating others doesn't seem to be a thing of today and that's really bothersome. So my blog topic today is about APPRECIATION

Maybe you're already in a position where you are absolutely satisfied with your life. That is a wonderful position to be in. Maybe you're not satisfied & you feel that life has cheated you or that maybe even looked over you. That's okay for now but what you may not realize is that before life can deal you a better hand you must first appreciate what you already have.
Here is what I mean:
o Be thankful that you have a roof over your head.
o If you have a job - be thankful that you are currently employed.
o If you have a business - be thankful that you are your own boss.
o If you have been blessed with children - be thankful for that you were able to have them.
o Be thankful for what the food that you get to eat every day.
o If you're in a relationship appreciate your partner's good qualities & be thankful for that.
o Be thankful just for being alive.
Be Thankful for others that do NICE things for you
It doesn't matter how bad you think life is right now because there are many people who would gladly step into your shoes at any given time. No matter how little you think you have there is always someone somewhere who has a lot less and a lot worse. If you disagree with me no big deal, but why not try this appreciation thing out for 3 days Myself is trying the same little 3 day test so to speak. For the next I challenge YOU for 3 days, appreciate all that you have. Look around where ever you might be & acknowledge your position in life.Look at all the beauty that nature provides you, the wind, the sun, the moon, the stars at night and so much more... Then when ever you look at what you have say thank God for the abundant blessings that I do have. If you can keep this kind of mindset going for the next 3 days you will most likely start to see some kind of sign or change of better things to come. If you have already been appreciating everything in your life for some time, give yourself a hug. You don't have to believe a word I say but don't knock it until you try it.... what if it works? Well my friends moving on...one thing out of a million that motivated me to write this blog was a recent fundraiser benefit for MS/Multiple Sclerosis. I hosted/ Emceed the event and realized even more that I too personally need to appreciate LIFE in general more. We only have one chance, one life, APPRECIATE WHAT YOU GOT. Thank you for stopping by friends, feel free to follow, comment, share, etc. Truly, Dennis Kelly
