This post is after a little hiatus, some time off. But now I am back in the full swing of things and back on the path to becoming a better man. The next challenge deals with the importance of gratitude. There were two parts to this challenge. The first part is to cultivate our gratitude by creating a list of ten things we are thankful for. They are to be specific things.
Here is my list.
1. I am thankful how my wife sacrifices sleep to spend more time with me in the morning.
2. I am thankful for being blessed to have a family to spend time with.
3. I am thankful for a family that is growing, both my nuclear and extended.
4. I am thankful for being able to play basketball and other physical activities.
5. I am thankful for being able to take the metro to work and have some alone time to read or simply be.
6. I am thankful for the baby boy we are going to have in July.
7. I am thankful for a job I get to come to everyday and provide for my family
8. I am thankful for a loving church family that God uses to bless us beyond belief.
9. I am thankful for having the chance to constantly strive to become more like Jesus.
10. I am thankful for waking up everyday and having a life to live.
Part 2, Showing gratitude.
The second part was for us to give three thank yous to three different people. The people that I thanked were the two workers who stands at my metro stop and makes sure people do not cross the tracks when a train is approaching. The second person I thanked was the office worker at my school who makes our copies. The third person I thanked was the 4 bus drivers that take me to and from the metro to my school.
I like to show gratitude and to let people know that they are appreciated. I enjoyed this challenge and I fell that it is a good thing to practice daily.
