Gratitude is...

Listen here

Gratitude is a soft breeze on your skin

And sun on your face

And laughter with friends

Gratitude is a loving caress

And making beautiful food to share.

Gratitude is cold clean water to drink

Hot water in the shower

And a splash in a river or lake or ocean

Gratitude is

Watching animals at play

And hearing children laugh

Gratitude is

A shelter

Food on the table

Someone who cares for me

Gratitude is

Beath

Heartbeat

Connection to Earth

Connection to Source

Gratitude is

The stars in the night sky

The moon and the sun

Especially at Dusk and at Dawn

Gratitude is

Birdsong

Dancing

Friendship

And belonging

Gratitude is

Being curious about new things

Exploring

And inspiration

Gratitude is

Seeing colours

Smelling Scents

Tasting food

And petting soft skin or fur or feathers

Gratitude is

The Gift

Of being Alive
