Giving Thanks - What Are You Grateful For Today?
This month marks the beginning of the traditional holiday season, complete with Thanksgiving - a holiday devoted to being grateful for the bounty in our lives. It’s a time to take notice of what we have, whether that’s things, or people.I have so much to be grateful for this holiday season - a thriving community of givers, a newly released book, wonderful friends and family, my health, and the opportunity to share the spirit of the 29 Gifts movement with thousands of people.
So in the spirit of the upcoming holiday, as well as that of our 29 Gifts Movement, I have decided to start this discussion in hopes that each of you will leave replies telling us 3 (or more!) things in your life that you are grateful for. What are you grateful for today?
I've also begun a Gratitude Greetings event for this month. You can read more and join in here:

Simultaneously with The 29 Day Giving Challenge I am doing 30 Days of Gratitude online. Each day there is a different theme for the gratitude message we right. Doing the two together has been an amazing heart opening experience.

I am grateful for my family, friends, and my health. I am thankful that I was blessed with a wonderful dad who had a wonderful life for 95 years! I am thankful that my great 93 year old mom is now close by and is not in any current pain.

In this moment, I am grateful for the loving, supportive relationships I have in my life. I have such caring and generous people to rely on at work, in my family, my spiritual life, and in my "urban" family that has been created in the city. I am also grateful to the children with which I work. They all have taught me so much in terms of love, joy, and honesty. Lastly, I am grateful for the abundance that has come into my life. I have a home of my own and I can take care of myself in a variety of ways. I am also able to share with others. I am truly grateful for all of these things.
Thank you, Cami for giving us a place to share our ideas, encourage others, and give to our community.

Just went through major surgery and am not close to family. So, when two brothers took it upon themselves to come from out of town to take care of me...... Not easy accepting help... But very appreciative. Initially a niece who I am very close to was to help but had some unexpected trauma in her life to take care of... tried to arrange things.... all in all... things happen for a reason.. I am thankful for all the people that I didn't know would come at a moments notice... came at a moments notice. Wow!!!!! Do I ever have a lot to be thankful for this thanksgiving!!!!
