Five Things a Day for Which I am Grateful Today

When I first started participating on Twitter I discovered @5ThingsaDay and the basic concept of listing five things a day for which I am grateful. Wonderful, what an idea and what a joyous way to start a day, or end a day or both!

I think that if we get in the habit of identifying at least 5 things every day that we can give thanks for that our days will be more positive. I predict that we will soon have 10 things a day for which we are grateful and over time we will see that gratitude reaps more blessings inspires more thanks.

So today I am grateful for:

1. Thanksgiving is only 4 more days.
2. New friends.
3. the great dreams I am having every night.
4. waking up with a song in my heart this morning.
5. my cat Bill is still alive and lively 2 years after he was given only weeks to live.

I have many other things on my list now every day. I am grateful from my precious husband Tommy. He surrounds me with love. I am grateful for my cats BB and Rosie. They make me laugh every day. I am thankful for the wonderful studio that Tommy has built for me, and our new apartment in the City so that I can see my beloved Manhattan ever week.

I am grateful that I finally launched Greetums.com and that it grew to become something more than I originally imagined back in June of this year. I am thankful each time I review one of my e-cards. They each are a labor of love and a love of what I do. I am proud of my team and thrilled every time I get to watch and dance and sing-a-long with our wonderful little Greetums.

Finally, for today, I am thankful that I discovered the JOY of Twitter and that I have the boundless energy to devote a full-time effort to engaging, listening and helping the folks I follow on Twitter. I have three accounts, @Greetums, @KatCaverly and @Humorous. I am very active on the first two and just getting started with the third.

I loving Twitter is wrong, I don’t want to be right!
