To push it along a little, give it a firm nudge back to peace, I’m going to publish an extra post today to shift the mood. My own included.
Yes, it’s time to say thank you to something or someone in your life. Just a thank you note.
After it’s debut on Mamamia earlier this year, this thank you note post has quickly become hugely popular and actually changed the way I think about things.
It’s inspired by the delightful ThxThxThx blog, “a daily exercise in gratitude” where US creative director Leah Dietrich writes a daily thank-you note to something in her life. Like these……
Since first coming across Leah’s blog and doing similar posts here, I’ve found myself looking for things I’m grateful for during the week. Little things. Like this:
Dear Funny Cute Guy In The Deli,
Thanks for being flirtatious and reminding me that I’m not just a tired, invisible mother of three. You made me and your deli mate laugh when you gestured to your t-shirt and asked “Do you know what kind of material this is?” and I looked puzzled and you said “Boyfriend material”.
I walked out of your shop with a little spring in my step.

What are you grateful for this week?

That I live in a beautiful country like Australia, that I am healthy touch wood, my children are healthy, that I wake up every morning, to see another day. That there is no raging war in Australia. That I still manage to pay our bills, and am not in debt. Halellujah......
