Wow!! I'm overwhelmed by the many people who want to spread #gratefulvibes to others!!

In the spotlight is a special #gratefulvibes post.

@musclegirlfusion has been a wonderful contributor here on the #gratefulvibes challenge. In her comments she confided how she has blogged on other platforms and that Steemit offers the best "community" she has found. And that here on Steemit she is comfortable expressing her thoughts and feelings. In yesterday's amazing post she tells how she overcame weight and body issues that have been with her since childhood. And that the last few years have been a time of mental and physical growth, transforming her into a confident & fit young woman who found her niche in fitness and body building. In yesterday's post, @musclegirlfusion states, " I am now blogging and trying to help other women with similar issues realize that they are not alone and they can overcome insecurities as well." You can read her awesome post here. Thank you @musclegirlfusion!!

Paradise Found is grateful for his friend Jake


Jake feels called to go into mission work. He has been accepted for a position with Youth with a Mission (YWAM link). Jake is now fund-raising for his mission work here in the US and in Africa. He has a huge heart for helping others discover who they are in Jesus Christ.

Check out the Steemit Gratitude Journal

The Gratitude Journal that @cabelindsay started runs for the month of November. It is open to all and includes Steem incentives for participants. One thing that is emphasised, all of us may actively give and receive the gift that is gratitude. You can read more on how to participate in the Gratitude Journal here.

We can all use both tags when posting, #gratitude & #gratefulvibes.

May we continue being grateful :)

Thank you, and I agree!! Steem on #gratefulvibes!!

Wow! So many lives have been touched by this challenge and each life is spread so many ripples of compassion and love around. So proud of what you are doing and happy to be a part of it. Today, I would like to express my gratitude for having the ability to choose forgiveness over holding grudges. Letting go is extremely important whether it is to let go of any resentment you have, any grudge you hold against someone or any of your negative thoughts. Holding on to unhealthy thoughts and emotions brings in a lot of hurt and hate and both are poisonous to your gratitude. These emotions keep you from being appreciative and thankful of your blessings and acknowledging all that you have. Over the years, I have worked on becoming more forgiving of myself each time I err and of others each time someone hurts me and I think this has helped me become more thankful and content with time so today I am thankful for having the ability to forgive, forget and let go. :D

Thank you for your kind words!!
Man, I couldn't agree more on letting go of grudges and forgiveness!!
Thank you for the reminder how important it is!!
Thank you also for your contributions to the #gratefulvibes challenge!!

Always a pleasure :D

I admire you and this good work you're doing, creating a great series of shares with this community challenge. Here's a new one I posted today. Different flavor. Same #gratefulvibes! It's a song celebrating my 6th wedding anniversary.

Thank you so much. I hadn't exactly planned it this way, but as it developed the posts were so good they deserved to have a wider audience. So the "spotlight" was born. I think it is a wonderful way to share #gratefulvibes and highlight the very best posts. I will check out your post. Thanks Cabe!!
Also - I'm still including the gratitude journal in my daily post, many are pleased to participate.

Your generosity is so great. Thanks for your invitations, your spotlights, your promotions... This is such big Work you're doing, you know.

Thank you my friend, you are very kind. I'm grateful for the opportunity to spread goodwill. This is how it came about: a short time ago I was exposed to a person who constantly had the "poor me" attitude, always having a pity party. It was then I realized that gratitude is a key to happiness. After doing a little research, I discovered that gratitude breeds success as well. So I figured, let's be intentional about it. At first it was gonna be just my family, but the idea came to share it with the Steemit community as well. As it turns out, it was a great idea!!

Yeah, man, exactly. It is said: "What we appreciate will appreciate." To me, that means cultivating gratitude will bring more to be grateful for. Being intentional about it is just what we're doing here.

You have a nice group of friends!!

with a good friend, we are very excited about my life @paradise-found.

Today I'm grateful that I'm a bit less sore than yesterday. :D I'm grateful that our children and the bob calves are safe, healthy and happy. I'm grateful that my husband still makes me laugh on a daily basis, not bad after being married for over a quarter of a century. :D I'm grateful that our girls went into the barn really easy tonight and right to their oat dishes, no fuss or muss. :D Most of all I'm grateful that I was gifted with another day to learn something new, to love my family and friends and to be loved by those family and friends. :D I can't ask for more than that and am very blessed. Have an awesome day! :D

I'm glad you're feeling less stiff. PTL!!
And your husband still makes you laugh, that is wonderful!!
God bless you my friend!!

I'm sorry, what is PTL, wait I was having a senior moment, that is Praise The Lord, right? Yes he makes me laugh, even when I'm mad at him, which makes me madder, which in turn makes him work at making me laugh even more. Its a vicious cycle really, LOL. :D God bless you as well @paradise-found! Have an awesome day! :D

Thank you so much! This truly is an amazing community. On a separate subject, today I am thankful for the time change. The sun was bright and shining this morning by me and it just makes the day start out on a happy note! (coming home in the dark is a different story, but it will get light again eventually). Again, thank you!

I'm happy you like this post!! Yeah, Steemit is the best!! So many amazing & talented people!!
Yeah, the time change is good for early darkness!!

wow that's really awesome :)
