I’m spending the morning completing my “Gratitude Challenge”. We should always feel grateful, but during a week where sharing these sentiments is widely accepted – why not create a list so you won’t forget anything.

——
Gratitude is one of the highest emotions when looking at emotional intelligence.
——
It’s only second to LOVE.
——
Just one thought of gratitude can pull you away from more negative emotions like anxiety, fear, jealousy.
