Every day we can complain about a lot of things, or we can be grateful that we are alive, that God has given us another day to live, that we have food to eat, and that we have a purpose for the day.  A 10-week experiment was conducted at the University of California at Davis where participants had to write down 5 things every day for which they were grateful.  Those who participated reported 28% less stress than those who did not participate.  Wow!  Today when so much is being written about stress and how best to deal with it, one of the best ways to relieve stress and increase joy is to have a grateful attitude.  Today say thank you a lot of times to God and people.  Start every day with an attitude of gratitude – and then wear it all day long!
