Another month in 2022 is in my rearview mirror on my road to express thankfulness. This adventure sometimes becomes a challenging task, but I’m discovering so many things to be thankful for each day. Focusing on the positive despite all the tragedy in the world makes me happy. It motivates me to work toward a positive change and being grateful drives away fear. I can see so many potholes in the road, but I start my day searching for the blessings in my life. These events or things might seem small and insignificant, but they add up to a giant pile of happiness at the end of the road. I am inviting you to come along for the ride. Why don’t we all travel the road of gratefulness in May? This post covers day 135 of my 365 days of thankfulness.
Day 135 of my 365 Days of Thankfulness
On day 135 of my 365 days of thankfulness, I am grateful for my 500 hundred WordPress followers. I got a notice that all of those people are now following me. I am grateful for every one of them. It is a lift to the ego because I have discovered so many talented and helpful people during my blogging adventures. I spend a portion of my day reading posts by other bloggers. The writing is filled with so much interesting and helpful information. I feel my world became bigger as I got acquainted with the WordPress community. I am grateful for all the bloggers I have met over the years.
This old lady is happy.
This old lady has learned thanksgiving is a matter of choice. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. Even in dark places, it is good to seek light. My blessings may not be the same as yours because I’m old. I bet if you dig deep, you can come up with something to be thankful for today. Don’t neglect to see the good things right in front of your face because you hear the world is falling apart. Let me tell you a secret. The world is always falling apart when you focus on the doom and gloom. You won’t always find thankfulness an easy road, but it’s an adventure we can all take together. What are you thankful for today? Leave a comment, and bless my heart. I am not being sarcastic when I say that. I could use the encouragement as much as the next person.

Thank you for reading my post. The little things add up to a big thing after a while.
I have been enjoying these 365 days of thankfulness. I read them everyday, even though I don’t always comment. I agree the blogging friends I have made are wonderful and I am thankful for them too. Have a great Sunday!
Thank you. Blog friends are the best.
I’ve been grateful, in return, for your presence among us in the WP family, for a long time now. You give us heartwarming reading ~ and you do much more than simply read the works of others, you very frequently take the time and trouble to leave encouraging comments too. I see your uplift all over this site, and I myself can remember some very dark days that you helped so much to brighten. We have a sister to be grateful for in you! 🌹
Thank you. I am glad i have been an encouragement. There are so many ugly voices in the world these days it is important for people to lift one another upwhen they can. Yoiu are one of my favorite poets.It is my pleasure to leave comments about your work.
