Awaken Your Inner Self

Be Grateful

Chapter 11

In life we can have very little or a lot! No matter which of these path's you occupy you have something to be grateful for,

Whom should we be grateful to? you ask well that depends entirely on you and your beliefs some think they should be grateful to no one because they created their own wealth or empire and that is their right to have this opinion but if you only rely on self then you have none to back you if all should fail,

And let's face it we have all seen the mighty fall for no reason at all! Or was there a reason?

Anyhow let's find out what we can be grateful for! You woke up this day, If you are reading this then you also opened another thing to be grateful for, Do you have a roof over your head have you food to eat water to drink a phone even paper and a pen can come in very useful in fact there is no end to how grateful we should be if we have life we have something.

There are many in the world that have nothing but themselves and they are still grateful they woke up, Imagine for a moment living on the street's it is not the safest place to sleep but it's all some have and they are grateful for a blanket or a sandwich, Or even for someone to give them a smile and a dollar or two.

The more grateful you are the more you receive so it is said, Wouldn't that be great to be that grateful it creates more to be grateful for!

Possible? Who know's maybe it is! Is it going to hurt you by being grateful? It shouldn't if it does then can you call it gratefulness? 

We should even be grateful to the people that enter our live's good or bad (I know some may see this as utter rubbish) let me explain a person that enter's your life whom is good can teach you a lot of good thing's and behaviour's, A person whom enter's your life that is not so good may hurt and leave you feeling broken / Dirty and anything else you can think of but you learn from that experience and can hopefully avoid that kind of experience happening again (Sometime's it take's some of us longer to learn or we stay in the situation far too long).

 So now back to whom we should be grateful too apart from the special case's that created their own empire! 

If you believe in the Lord then be grateful to him for his help in giving you all there is to be grateful for in life, For the Lord is the most powerful creator in the history of our existence you will follow / hear about or read about.

If you believe in the power of the universe being the beginning and end of all thing's I again ask you to read the above statement for if you understand universal energy you should also see some thing's you may not want too or can't explain.

If you believe in the power of Mantra's, Buddha, or any other thing you look too then I must tell you you are still in a form grateful to what some consider to be the way to the creator so again you are back to the Lord!  Sorry if this upset's you but we all have to face it at some stage.

No matter whom you believe in at this stage just be grateful everyday even if you just wake up and say "Thank you I am grateful for the gift of today" to no one in particular it's a start.

And don't forget to be grateful to all the little people who may have helped you along the way or will help you along the way without them you can also fail they were there to help for a reason they are blessing's.

So to the one's whom are most powerful and created themselves I say good luck when the little people walk away from your ungratefulness for just as blessing's are given they are taken away.

Today I am grateful to those whom read my page's thank you.
