Do you accept the 200 Gratitude Challenge? What is the 200 Gratitude Challenge? It is sitting down to do a type of active meditation whereby you list 200 people, things or concepts that you are thankful for as you review the past year or thinking about a new beginning to 2021.
It is always important to start something new with excitement, and a positive outlook. But considering the year most of us had in 2020 that may seem a difficult task. So, when all else fails, we always have gratitude. It is one of those things that just opens you up. You may be experiencing a more difficult emotion like, anger, frustration or even sadness especially as we consider the challenges of a pandemic and its effect on our daily lives. But, once you set your focus on gratitude, it’s as if a slight crack is opened through a window. Even the darkest of rooms will be infiltrated with light by just a small ray or a stuffy room be revived by the tiniest gust of air through a small opening.
This is how the concept of gratitude opens us up and shifts mood and energy. This is why although it may seem silly, this is actually a very helpful exercise to change the current mood and uplift the spirit as we start the New Year.
So how easy or hard is this challenge? When I first started, the most important people in my life filled the top spaces. One thought led to the next and it was easy. Right around the 47 mark is when things began to get interesting. When words like “fan”, and “humidifier” were added as I scanned the room I was in. And of course I thought, these are very important as I began to rationalize their value granting them a spot on this list. Then you wonder if you can even think of 150+ more things to write about! But then you get a burst of ideas and off you go. Some were so deep that I even shocked myself. The most important part of this exercise is that you take time out of your busy day to purposefully think about those things that you realize you are grateful for in this moment.
One thing is for sure, at the end of it, you will feel a sense of accomplishment. This is a good feeling to kick off the New Year for sure. If that weren’t reason enough, you will notice that there are many things to be grateful for even as we, collectively, lived through the hardest year of our modern history. In 2021 keeping gratitude handy for those difficult days can be a lifesaver.
Have fun with this and may you be well.

Hello, I enjoy reading through your post. I wanted to write a little comment to support you. Hinda Pen Poree
great issues altogether, you just won a new reader. What would you suggest in regards to your post that you simply made a few days ago? Any positive? Kasey Delmar Pergrim
I do love the manner in which you have framed this particular issue plus it really does give me personally a lot of fodder for thought. However, coming from just what I have personally seen, I really wish as the actual opinions pack on that individuals stay on issue and not embark upon a soap box involving some other news du jour. All the same, thank you for this outstanding point and whilst I do not go along with the idea in totality, I value your point of view. Star Ermin Lombardi

The road seemed to stretch on endlessly before us, but Alexis assured me that our journey was near an end. We’d turn before long into thick woods and travel through narrow, winding roads until we reached her family’s cabin. I had no choice but to trust her as GPS had given out nearly 20 minutes ago.
“There’s good wifi and okay reception at the cabin,” she’d told me, “but you can’t get there unless you know the way.”

So here I was, driving alone in the middle of god knows where with a girl who was my student just a couple of weeks ago. Her and her four best friends had been together from first grade all the way through high school and now they had graduated with very different futures ahead of them. They had decided to kick off “the best summer ever” with a week long stay at Alexis’s family cabin. Alexis and I were heading up before everyone else, the four other girls and four guys.
