I looked for something to kickstart my gratitude and this journal has much to offer. There are beautiful, meaningful quotes as well as prompts to write down one's thoughts and responses. I enjoy books and journals that are interactive, and this one caught my eye and captured my imagination. Gratitude makes us feel good. It also leads to joy, which is key to improving one's attitude and outlook on life. Gratitude is the antithesis to bitterness and complaining. We cannot be bitter and grateful at the same time. For me, gratitude feels healthier and brings joy to my heart, much like watching a kitten or seeing a puppy play. I find that gratitude also kicks out depression, once I seize upon it and write things down for which I am grateful.
