Daily Question, August 8

How can I live today more gratefully than yesterday?

  • KC

    Keep minding the ‘mind trains’, holding them with compassion, and exploring grateful living practices to look and move in a positive direction.

  • JoeytheHoff

    Smile through it and that smile will spark your keener and more compassionate intuition. The more empathy and care that you set yourself up to display, the greater the gratitude for the opportunity to express them.

  • Paul Y

    I’m grateful for today that my wife and I celebrated 36 years of marriage. I am grateful that this 1 friend of mine shares everything with me, whether she’s upset, happy or whatever that she has the confidence to share with me and I feel privileged to listen.

  • Karen

    I have been getting bogged down with some old hurts and resentments. Today am practicing better gratefulness by intentionally not feeding them…..life is really great! Why waste time by stirring up old pain and bitterness. Life today is awesome!

  • Trevor

    By pumping out the full half hour of bows tonight. If I can’t make sure to begin bowing early enough, the whole day was wasted. I couldn’t finish 30 minutes yesterday!! There is nothing more important and I won’t be able to practice gratitude without accomplishing my daily hour of prostrations IN THEIR ENTIRETY!

    • Antoinette

      Reverently I prostate with my body speech in mind I present clouds of every type of offering actual and mentally transformed ….
      Is this what you mean? Or are you doing them literally?

    • Trevor

      And also I am starting Rhonda Byrne’s The Magic today. But nothing matters if those bows don’t get done to THE TEE!

  • Amor fati

    My living gratitude is of one piece. There is no competition involving “more”..

  • kathleen

    I can be more intentional. I can stop often and ask “where is my attention?” Very relevant for me today. I am going to a funeral and I can ask myself. How am I grateful in this moment for my own life today?

  • Deb

    I can’t. I lived as gratefully yesterday as I possibly could. Yesterday is gone and irretrievable. Today is now and I begin once again to be as grateful as I know how to be. Always I begin again.

  • Michael

    By living today, really living it.

  • Michael

    a daily period of self reflection on what can I really improve upon always reveals valuable information. the daily “putting gratefulness into actions” is where I can always do more. in my own home too!!!

  • Kevin

    Honestly, That’s a goal I would not worry about because in my mind it turns the topic of being grateful and living a life of gratitude into some kind of a race for perfection. Instead, I would rather strive for being kind, honest, and considerate of other people as I move throughout my day and be fully present to all that unfolds hour by hour.

  • Antoinette

    I can live more gratefully today than yesterday by lighting and softening up. Let go and allow what ever comes to be. Praise Be.
    I can say yes more to life and allow the present moment to be here and notice the beautiful love here and now.
    Let go of the tightness and the grip I want to have of controlling the future and thinking about what may or may not happen! Thank you for this question it helped me remember to remember!

    • Trevor

      Letting go of control. I like it. In terms of realizing the ego isn’t running the show.

  • Ose

    By being grateful and happy for all life, unconditionally and towards all and everything which exists. For being with beloved friends and for you all who are sharing here.
