Giveaway – 365 Days Of Gratitude Journal by Marielle S Smith @GoddessFish

I love to invite authors to share their thoughts and am so happy to have Marielle S Smith here today to share five of her favorite gratitude quotes.

Five of my favourite gratitude quotes

With two gratitude journals out there, I’ve gathered a fair collection of gratitude quotes. In today’s post, I’ll be sharing some of my favourite quotes from both the first and second volume of the 365 Days of Gratitude Journal.

If any of the quotes speak to you and you wish to print them out, I created a high-quality PDF you can find here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PuIUIjYDNQZN68DGasQolMSoWwPgpHqy/view?usp=sharing

Life is a series of thousands of tiny miracles. Notice them.

—Roald Dahl

I just love this quote and it’s so in line with the one by Albert Einstein I included in the introduction to the journal: ‘There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing

is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.’

Each time I hear or read any of these two quotes, my perspective instantly shifts to something much lighter and joyful and I can’t help but smile.

The more grateful I am, the more beauty I see.

—Mary Davis

There’s a reason I put this quote on the cover of the second volume—it hits home every time. I can’t even put my finger on why, it just does. And I know from experience just how truthful this statement is, which is why I get a little bit frustrated with myself each time there’s a lull in my gratitude practice.

It’s a good thing it’s so easy to get back into it!

We should certainly count our blessings, but we should also make our blessings count.

—Neal A. Maxwell

Back in my student days, I had a conversation with my supervisor about privilege. As a relatively privileged woman—I’m white, cisgender, able-bodied, I can pass as straight, I was getting a higher education—I struggled with those privileges because it all felt a little unfair to me.

I’ll never forget how she responded. She said: ‘There’s no point in feeling bad or guilty about where you came from, because that’s beyond your control. But what you can do is use whatever privilege you happen to have to help dismantle the system that created these privileges in the first place.’

This quote reminds me of that conversation and that I should really use all of my blessings, including my privileges, for the greater good.

When you focus on the good, the good gets better.

—Abraham Hicks

Whether this is actually true, I couldn’t tell you, but it’s definitely something I want to believe. At the very least, this quote reminds me to focus on the good things that are happening in my life instead of all the things I’m not as thrilled about, and that always makes me feel better instantly.

We’re all so busy chasing the extraordinary that we forget to stop and be grateful for the ordinary.

—Brené Brown

This quote is, in a nutshell, why I decided to create a gratitude journal in the first place. We tend to celebrate and express gratitude over the big milestones and large blessings in our lives, but the key to living a grateful life is to learn to notice and be thankful for all those teeny tiny things we so easily take for granted. What are you grateful for today? Can you name one thin

Thanks so much for being here today, Michelle. I hope everyone enjoyed the post.
