Happy Father’s Day, fathers, and the Mothers/Fathers too.

Depression is visiting, and I am fighting to stand up. Talking to Alize Henry, she said something that gave me a reason to go up.

Many of us have given so much to life, and often feel alone when life tests us, and we break down.

She said that when I feel as if the world is falling on me, I should sit down and be grateful. I should be grateful for life. Be thankful for sight, then pray for the blind. Be grateful that I can walk, talk, hear, I have a home, food to eat, and someone who loves me. Then pray for others who need what I got.

Be thankful for my health, then pray for the sick.

Be grateful for peace, then pray for peace for others and our children our world.

When life gives you reasons to give up, sit down and be thankful, open your heart, mind, and soul, and allow gratitude to invade your being. Relax with gratitude. Sing, dance, think, cook, clean, work, fight life with gratitude, and peace will follow. She stressed that Gratitude is a gift from the universe, and we should give it a chance to calm us and enable us to relax.
