Arena - Ariana - A year on……
As we take stock to remember that fateful day in Manchester last year, we also see the start of the holy month of Ramadan and I pray we find solace in the power of love and gratitude……to thank Life, God, the Universe, or whatever deity you choose to believe in, for everyone and everything that has ever been sent your way, however painful, however joyous, however good or bad, that we find it in our hearts to move on with the power of gratitude…..
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order and confusion into clarity.
It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It transforms problems so that they become gifts, failure into success, the unexpected into perfect timings and awful tragedies and mistakes into life-affirming events.
It turns a simple, mere existence into a truly wonderful life and disconnected situations into significant lessons of real benefit.
Gratitude helps us makes sense of our past, it brings peace for us today and creates a vision for our tomorrow. Gratitude makes things right.
It turns negative energy into positive energy. There is no situation or circumstance, too small or too large, that is not susceptible to the power of gratitude.
Say THANK YOU, again and again, over and over, until you mean it……. if you say it long enough, you will no choice but to believe that everything you need is on its way and that the best thing about the past is that it’s over……..be blessed.
