the way to find happiness in the riches we already have.

An attitude of gratitude brings the angels near. When we are appreciated, we tend to give more to the person appreciating us. The angels are not different. So this day of Thanksgiving is an appropriate time to give thanks for all we have in our lives. The things we appreciate grow. What our mind dwells on is what grows into fruition in our lives. We reap what we sow.
"If you learn to appreciate more of what you already have, you'll find yourself having more to appreciate."

In this time of rushing through life it is easy to not stop and take time to appreciate what we already have. We are so goal oriented, we are always living in the future. We cannot live the future now. The only power we have is in this moment. Once one realizes the truth of this statement, then and only then can they begin to live in the now and be grateful for what they already have. It's vitally important that we not lose sight of the things that are near and dear-things we all too easily take for granted.
What we hold in our minds, meditate on, increases. If we focus on our problems they grow. If we thank the our Higher Power even for what we call problems then they, too, become blessings -- a challenge maybe, but a chance to overcome them and grow. After all, you created what you call problems; you and only you know exactly what you need to grow.
If you focus on where you want to be in life, while being grateful for where you are now, you will expand the opportunities to create your life just as you would like it to be. I see meditating on our problems as another form of prayer. When we worry and fret over things, we make them bigger than they really are, as well as attract more of the same. That's negative prayer-prayer in reverse.
Gratitude for what we HAVE and what we WANT "appreciates".<.h2>
Focus today, no matter what is happening in your life, on the here and now. Be grateful for what you do have and be grateful you are growing toward where you want to be. Before going to sleep tonight spend time thinking of three things you are grateful for. This is a powerful time of day you are in - that half wakeful and half sleep stage. The mind is easy to program at this time of day.
Gratefulness is a state of mind that should be practiced daily instead of yearly. Make everyday Thanksgiving.
