So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Express yourself with Gratitude Jewelry

By Deanna Collins

Gratitude brings a new perspective to your life. See the glass as half full and realize that you are beginning to change for the better. The world opens up when seen through the eyes of a gracious heart. Challenges in your life become manageable and little inconveniences seem unimportant when the focus is on an attitude of gratitude.

There are many ways to express gratitude. A journal is perhaps the most common method and is a great start, but gratitude jewelry is a fantastic way to take what is a once a day gratitude routine and make it part of every moment.

Why Gratitude Jewelry?

Many different items can be used to fashion jewelry. Jewelry can be used to enhance your beauty but also to remind you of the positive elements in your life.

Gratitude jewelry is symbolic. Every time you put a piece of gratitude jewelry on, whether it is a pair of earrings, a necklace or a bracelet, you recognize and appreciate the symbolism.

Wearing gratitude makes you constantly aware of what you have. A gratitude journal is a great daily exercise, but it can easily become a task and simply another thing to do on your to do list-that takes away some of the benefit of expressing gratitude. The power is in feeling gratitude, not in simply sitting down and doing something you should do. Wearing a piece of gratitude jewelry is effortless, it makes you feel good and gratitude becomes a part of your entire day.

Earrings, Necklace, Bracelet or all Three?

How do you choose the type of gratitude jewelry to wear? Consider where you'd like to focus your attention and what area of your body feels the most powerful. Many women love to feel earrings dangling. They're proud of their necks or hair and earrings just make them feel good.

Bracelets draw attention to themselves. They are shiny and make a lovely sound as they move along your wrist. The sound and the beauty of them is a constant reminder of your commitment to being gracious everyday.

Necklaces have always been a favorite adornment for hundreds of centuries. The metal or beads draw attention to the length and beauty of the neck. It makes a woman feel powerful and in control of her being.

Of course, matching sets have the power of giving you a complete set and saving you from having to make a potentially difficult choice. On those days when you know you're going to be facing a challenge you can wear all three and have faith in yourself and the situation.

Learning to express your gratitude in life will change you and your circumstances. Gratitude is a positive life energy that makes you thankful for each moment you have been given. Gratitude jewelry can help you continue to focus on the positive each day.
