The Mills family THANKFUL blog ▪ Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our ...past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. –Melody Beattie

Thankful Thursday! --My "to do list"
So today I am Thankful for this thought, it should be my "to do list"
ON THIS DAY
MEND a quarrel. SEARCH out a forgotten friend. DISMISS suspicion, and replace it with TRUST. WRITE a love letter. SHARE some treasure. GIVE a soft answer. ENCOURAGE youth. MANIFEST your loyalty in a word or deed.
KEEP a promise. FIND the time. FORGO a grudge. FORGIVE an enemy. LISTEN. APOLOGIZE if you were wrong. TRY to understand. FLOUT envy. EXAMINE your demands on others. THINK first of someone else. APPRECIATE, be KIND, be GENTLE. LAUGH a little more.
DESERVE confidence. TAKE up arms against malice. DECRY complacency. EXPRESS Gratitude. WORSHIP YOUR GOD. GLADDEN the heart of a child. TAKE pleasure in the beauty of the earth. SPEAK your LOVE. SPEAK it again. SPEAK it still again. SPEAK it still once again.
