Be Grateful

Hi everyone! I hope your Tuesday is going well! I recently received this email from The Secret book. I’m still going through a hard time with life right now but this little email made me happy for a little while. I wanted to share it with you. Whenever I have doubts, I always enjoy going to The Secret web site. The stories people submit give me a little burst of energy and optimism. If you aren’t familiar with The Secret, I highly recommend the book, movie and web site. Here’s what was e-mailed to me below:

Today, be grateful. Be grateful for your favorite music, for movies that make you feel good, for your phone that connects you with people, for your computer, and for the electricity that lights up your life. Be grateful for air travel that flies you everywhere. Be grateful for the roads and traffic lights that keep the traffic in order. Be grateful to those who built our bridges. Be grateful for your pet, for your child, for your loved ones, for your eyes that enable you to read this. Be grateful for your imagination. Be grateful that you can think. Be grateful that you can speak. Be grateful that you can laugh and smile. Be grateful that you can breathe. Be grateful that you are alive! Be grateful that you are You! 

Be grateful that there are two words that can change your life.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Hello everyone! My name is Lisa Amaya. I'm a 30 some year old mom to one son. My blog is about my life, entertainment, current events, people and events in my hometown, El Paso, Texas, etc. My blog will also feature pieces about Ciudad Juarez, Mexico and surrounding areas in New Mexico. I also hope to include more travel blog posts. Guest bloggers will also contribute from time to time! I've been a writer since I was 6 years old. I graduated from New Mexico State University with a degree in journalism. I've written for various newspapers and magazines. I plan on focusing more of my time on blogging and freelance writing. I took a five-year break from writing but I'm back at it! Thank you for stopping by and welcome!

  19. Lisa, sorry you are still going through a rough time. Time is a healer and stay strong and positive, because things will get better. We have all had our share of heartbreak, it makes us stronger and better for having had that experience. Hope tomorrow will be a better day.

  31. We should always find something to be grateful for, everyday. I try to do that as I go forward in life. Thanks for sharing this!
