Inhale blessings. Exhale gratitude. Gratitude is the most effective path to find contentment. If you need to wake up early as a parent, you should feel grateful for having children to love. If you need to clean or repair your home, you should feel grateful for having a place to live. If you have laundry chores to take care of, you should feel grateful for having clothes to wear. If you have dishes to clean, you should feel grateful for having food to eat. If you feel tired in bed, you should feel grateful for being alive in this beautiful world.
