Welcome to Gratitude Watch.
Gratitude Watch is an eye on the internet for news, articles, videos, and other items, all focusing on the subject of gratitude. For more on my intent on these postings, see About Gratitude Watch.
So … let’s rock!
• Something Visual •
“Attitude of Gratitude – Your Key to Getting What You Want! – The Honest Guys – #12.” A couple of cut-ups from the U.K. known as “The Honest Guys” give us our gratitude journaling warm up for the day, and talk about the Law of Attraction, to boot.
• This is The New Stuff •
The Reluctant Aquarian at Gratitude Changes the World gives us “Month 1: The Gratitude Change,” a candid look at embracing gratitude in her life, and the gold nuggets she’s finding amongst her challenges.
•
From the Australian news site Northern Star: “Crash victim voices gratitude from hospital bed,” in which Dutch tourist and motor accident victim Misha Deventer does an interview about the accident for an ulterior motive — to thank all the emergency response employees and health staff that saved the life of he and his girlfriend.
•
Tariq Jung at Muslim Point gives us “The Gift of Gratitude,” and opens with a very good joke about something that is all too true.
•
Star Gardener at The Dessert Years gives us “Gratitude is a many splendored thing,” a free-wheeling reminder from a cancer survivor to be present and grateful for the present moments of our lives.
•
Lisa at Thinking Out Loud gives us “My father…….” a very touching look at a woman about to lose her father, and being overwhelmed by gratitude for the life she has shared with him … and for just about everything else as well.
•
Ms. Sanity of Sanity in an Insane World offers (with a title that says it all) “Five Ways to Keep Yourself Centered in Gratitude.”
•
Carmellita Brown at Blue Lotus Living offers: “Real Love is Self-Love: Do We Really Know How to Love?” — reminding us that we need to be able to express gratitude for that blind spot many of us have — ourselves.
•
Joyce at Joyce Lee Life Coaching Moment gives us “Woman’s Wellness: Life is Supposed To Be Yummy…” — a great little reminder about getting what we want by be grateful for what we’ve got.
•
Mr. SponsorPants shares with us a recognition, following the observance of a friend’s passing, of being “Grateful to be grateful.”
• Oldies but Goodies •
Liz Flavin’s company Gratitude, Etc. “is her vision of hope, optimism and generosity and a vehicle for conveying the unlimited potential of gratitude to bring clarity, connection, and meaning to one’s life.” Beyond her message, she has created the Gratitude Etc. Jewelry Collection. A portion of the proceeds of all sales of the line “is donated to the Domestic Violence Crisis Center, based in Norwalk.”

Stay tuned for the next Gratitude Watch.

You have a plethora of wonderful information here. Thank you so much for being a “Messenger” and a part of the “Great Work.” Now we all can do our part in answering that question (we may already know the answer to)…what is the meaning of existence? Love your site. Love your message.
Thank you so much for including my post in your gratitude watch… and thanks for the worthy project of watching for gratitude anyway! Gratitude is SO important in these times. I just stumbled one of your posts and will also add you to my blogroll. Your work here is very interesting and helpful… thanks so much for sharing! Hope to hear more from you. Best regards, Ms. Sanity. (my nick should actually be “hoping for sanity…” heh.
