Rule #39 11/23/15

Say Thank You. 

We often forge tot say thank you for the blessings in our life. No matter how desperate the time is for your life right now - say thank you. Even when you have absolutely nothing exterior whatsoever and you may feel there is not a reason in the world to say thank you; remember that breath you just took, yeah the one you just inhaled and released prior to even finishing this sentence - that was a gift. It is one of the greatest gifts we can say Thank you for - a chance to continue on.

Breathing is a present we receive over and over again, the kind we tend to take for granted simply because we allow ourselves to get a little too comfortable, a little too distracted, a little too busy to stop and realize just how powerful that breath truly was, just how significant breathing is to our lives and being alive - make it a daily habit to be grateful for each and every time God grants you another chance to continue breathing - regardless of your pain, your situation, your worry and your fear, take a moment to embrace the fact that you are here now and that in itself is really a powerful gift - your life has great purpose, appreciate it. ~Will "Story" Rivera
