We are grateful about – Health (emotional, spiritual, relational, physical, financial), Peace of mind, family & friends, joy & laughter, dreams and goals). Then we find specific things to be grateful for each day. For instance, today I am grateful to Shekar Raman, who suggested a name for this website- “My Words My Life”. The “.com” url was unavailable, and this led me into a quest for names, and I ended up with “My Words My World” and I quite like the alliteration. Very grateful for that.
