I saw Corinne tagging me for gratitude; and I could
not resist, and just posted a few. Now I am inspired to write a post for the 5
days;
Wishing you happiness ! love and gratitude !
Gratitude
for the day! 1
I am thankful for my
husband David who helps me in the household work, which provides me some time for
myself, to practice yoga, meditate and pray.
I am grateful for the
lady attender at my office; she cleans up my table, brings in cool water, takes
care of students, while I am in session, and is ever willing to serve.
This summer I enjoyed eating
mangos with a lot of gratitude, relished every piece! I was filled with gratitude for the person who planted the seed,
the one who took care of the tree, and the persons who brought the fruit to the
city.
Gratitude
for the day! 2
I am grateful for my
friend who presented me a pretty pink dress, even got it tailored for me. I am
happy and thankful for this beautiful dress and the gift of friendship in my
life.
I feel thankful to my
daughter who learnt to make the chicken curry from her dad, and tried it, while
I went out to pick up the vegetables; she was ready with the dish, offering me
a delicious and tasty piece of chicken.

I am thankful for the
lovely smart phone I got from one of my friend, who was so thoughtful enough to
send it across to me; as she was getting a new one.
Gratitude
for the day! 3
I am happy and grateful
to my sister in law who welcomed me to her home, for a day, prepared a lovely
meal and entertained me and my daughter; it was such a lovely time for me to
sit and do nothing and bring in past memorable moments of life and relive them
once again with my nephews, and their children.
I am grateful to my
sister; who surprised my daughter by sending some very specially cooked
biryani, and brightening up my daughter for the evening dinner.
I am happy for one of
my students, who came all the way almost 20 kms only to say thank you to me. I
feel honoured with these gestures, as they motivate me to do more good.

Gratitude
day 4!
I feel thankful to Charles
who came to play the keyboard for the mass, during the in the silver wedding
celebration of my brother and sister in law. The music was so beautiful, that
it added value to the prayer service, making the occasion an experience.
I am thankful for my
nephews and niece for having started a small group on whats app on my dad’s
name and updating one another about well being of families, praying, uplifting
and supporting each other, that makes me thankful for the app, and bond that
creates.
I feel gratitude to my
head at my workplace who is very magnanimous in giving; for the constant
affirmation I get, and for the opportunity she gave to attend a lecture on
cross cultural issues in counseling by a very renowned speaker.

day 5!
I am grateful to my son
who taught me lessons of love; and gifted me with lovable memories, to relive the
past with gratitude.

I am happy and thankful
for the lovely weather in Hyderabad, so pleasant, cool; giving me a lot of
energy and capacity to work both at home and at my workplace.
I am thankful for my
daughter’s classmates who were kind enough to help, when she had a fall, to
reach her class room, and carry her books, and
help her get into the school bus.
