~Challenge yourself to be Thankful ALWAYS~



Some of my Herbalife friends shared this video here on Facebook so I'd thought I'd pass it on as well!

I totally get this! While I was at my part-time job the other week I had a "Gratitude" moment. Being a part-time checker during all the busy Christmas shopping can be a downer... but I always would look for something to make me smile or think positive on... That "Gratitude" moment came to me when I was least expecting it... this stranger doesn't even know he made my day.

There was an older man perhaps he was a Grandpa...? He was holding his new Granddaughter who was maybe 2-3months old...? His face was just lit up with the happiest sincere smile I had seen all day! All while he was holding and adoring this little bundle of joy! It was beautiful! As I observed this special moment between this Grandpa and Granddaughter, It seemed as if time had stopped around this guy… he was obviously in is very own happy bubble!!! He just seemed so happy and thankful for this precious little baby girl and gift of life he was holding! So I made sure to put myself in a happy bubble as well… and so for the rest of my shift I just filled my head with thoughts of people and things that made me happy and thankful for! Let’s just say the rest of my shift was a good one… when I changed my attitude it seemed as if the world changed around me also! I was very thankful for this stranger and little baby girl!
