Gratitude - Day #30

What talent or skill do you have that you are grateful for?
​
I believe I have the ability to put people at ease. Even strangers will approach and speak to me wherever I go. I used to find it weird and awkward, and truth be told, I still sometimes do, but for the most part, I see it as a gift. I might be the only friendly conversation that person has had all day. Maybe my kind words will be the light in the dark that they needed. Maybe I made them smile at a time when they thought they had lost it.  Or maybe I'll just be a funny story for them to tell their spouse at dinner.  You just never know.  Being kind is free and easy.  You really never know the impact that it will have on someone.  I love that I can make people feel comfortable enough around me that, for the time we are together, they can be at ease and hopefully walk away with a smile.

The last day!  We made it!  Thirty days of gratitude. I hope that this has invited you all to look deeper at the blessings in your life. It's so easy to fall into the gratitude complacency trap and although saying thank you is always enough, we can get into a rut with it and lose sight of all of the many, many things that we have to be grateful for in our daily lives.
I hope that you continue on with this and make gratitude a part of your daily routine. 
Thank you all for being a part of this with me!
