Thanks-living

Thanksgiving creates abundance.  Ann Voskamp

When we live a grateful life we create abundance.  Nothing may change in circumstances but we suddenly see the abundance that surrounds us.  Get outside of the box of what our world says abundance is.  It is not material possessions. It is relationships.  It is not quantity.  It is quality.  (That applies to relationships as well btw.)  It is not standing on the top rung of the corporate ladder (which frankly is quite wobbly these days anyway).  It is standing on the top rung of living a life defined by integrity.  Those are just a few examples that came to mind this morning as I reflect, along with our nation, on thanksgiving.  
In your own life how does living thankfully create abundance?  How have you seen thanks-living expand your life?  If you lack abundance in your life you may want to reflect on how you are living - thankfully or not?  It's not too late, it's never too late, to turn it around.  Live thankfully and you live abundantly.
