โGratitude is great for you.โ - @elementm
Welcome to Graturday Week Twenty-Two!๐
Actually, welcome to yet another Grunday. It's been that kind of week. Sorry, guys.
If this is your first time here, this is what this giveaway is about: every Saturday (unless I'm late enough for it to be Sunday) I invite anyone who happens to stumble upon this post to share something they feel grateful for. Aside from getting the chance to express your gratitude, you could win one of the prizes.
What prizes?
๐ 1st Gratitude Comment gets 100 Ecency points
๐ 2nd Gratitude Comment gets 90 Ecency points
๐ 3rd Gratitude Comment gets 80 Ecency points
๐ 4th Gratitude Comment gets 70 Ecency points
๐ 5th Gratitude Comment gets 60 Ecency points
But why gratitude?
Because gratitude is great for you. Being grateful can yield all sorts of benefits, including:
- More restful sleep
- Better focus
- More patience
- Improved self-esteem
- More positive moods
- Stronger relationships
- (And many more)
And that's just from a scientific perspective. If you look at it in terms of the energy you put into the world and what you'd like to have returned to you, gratitude can encourage more good things to come your way. You don't have to believe it just because I (or anybody else) said so. Try it yourself with Graturday ๐. Here's how:
The Rules
- Leave a comment on this post about something you feel grateful for.
- Comments can be any length as long as they clearly convey what you feel grateful for.
- You can't pick everything or everyone, so narrow it down to something or someone specific.
- You can't give the same comment more than once in a month if you want your entry to be eligible for prizes. (But if you want to mention something multiple times per month alongside new things you feel grateful for, that's fine too.)
- You don't have to upvote or repost to enter, but if you do, just know that you have my gratitude for that.
- You have until next week's Graturday post goes up to enter for this week โณ.
What am I grateful for this week?
I'm super grateful that my son's rash has cleared up. โRashโ is probably way too mild of a word to describe that whole situation, but I'd rather not get into all of the gross details. There are scars for now, but I'm glad it wasn't much worse. My joint pain is back, though, which is less than awesome, but I hope this is only a minor setback on my road to full recovery.
Okay, now it's your turn! Please join in and let me know in the comments what you felt grateful for this past week.
Have a Great Graturday!

Hi there, I've been waiting for your post ๐
I had a very good deal buying new ice skates yesterday, I found them first for โฌ99,95 and then later on another site for only โฌ59 but that was not all, they had a pair in my size that was returned by another customer but still in perfect condition, because the box was opened they sold it to me for โฌ39, that's a great deal coming from โฌ99!
Grateful for that!
Keep moving with back pain even if it hurts, I've got it too every now and then ๐ฉ
I love a good bargain too, good for you ๐๐๐! And your waiting paid off, you got the first comment this week and won 100 Ecency points ๐ฅณ!
