I am grateful to have a partner who is open to spiritual development and is willing to share the path with me. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to get into touch with spiritual teachings to open up my eyes. I am grateful that I can read what the reasons for your gratitude are.
Thank You Almighty and thank you People! -

I am grateful for my DNA and the brain I have as a result of information contained in my DNA.
My brain makes me relate and perceive my enviroment and he is a great healthy receiver of signals that come through the Universal “biochemical” precision.
My DNA and Brain have given me an amazing combination of so called “life events” and very clear and precise and recogniseable sequence of Universal “biochemical ” events.
Thank you Universe for my genes, my unique DNA!
That is all I have to be grateful for as that determines everything else and my purpose in this physical body ! It’s great to have a strong feeling about it – but then again – how could I do it without my beautiful brain!
I am grateful for the rest of my organs too as they cooperate with my brain so well. I am grateful for all my hard working cells! Again my brain dictates huge respect towards them – so I feel so lucky to have an amazing Central organ in my CNS!!!
I am grateful for a lovely relationship between my brain and the rest of my cells and organs . All of them ! -
I am grateful

>For having a a job, properties and a car
>For the knowledge that I AM actually the miniacure GOD, i.e. God and I are ONE! -
I am grateful to have learned that the only thing that is required of me is to be awake and aware. Who I am and what I “do” does not have to be defined or judged, but simply happens with each moment of awareness. I am grateful for how the generous universe conspires to support and empower me the moment I am centered and still and open to its infinite possibilities.

When I am looking at my son of 3yrs and he wakes up or about to fall asleep and takes his hands and holds my face and says: Mommy I love you!! and just being healthy and learning to be strong again and myself again and have this great opportunity to show my son how to become the best one can be and becoming the best I can be in the process. Thank you!

I am grateful to be able to witness the powerful energy of the Caribbean Sea.
I am grateful for the blue sky and the air I breathe. I am grateful to be conscious of where I am today. I am grateful for loving another human being unconditionally. I am grateful I have a special bed to sleep in at night.
I am grateful to be able to be grateful. -
I am deeply grateful for my life, for each day I take a breath, see the early morning, and feel the wind on my face. I bow in gratitude to everyone at Chopra.com and the Chopra Center for sharing their wisdom, love and light with all of us.
May all who post here and everyone upon our beautiful planet know blessings, love and peace. -
I am grateful for family but especially for my grandchildren who fill my life with so much meaning. They are also my teachers, each is so unique with so many gifts to offer. I am grateful for my health and for the health of those I love. I am grateful for my stuggles, they have helped open my heart, mind and spirit. But mostly I am grateful the graces provided by my God.
-
I am so thankful, so grateful for learning that I am one with God, and that this Presence truly loves me. I am so thankful to learn that there is no separation between me and the Creator of the Universe, and that I no longer need to live in fear of the unkown, knowing that I am never alone, but that I am supported by the presence of Life itself. I am so thankful for the teachers, experiences and lessons that have allowed me to grown spiritually, and to experience transformation. I am thankful for a mother who taught me to believe that there is a God, and who taught me and my siblings to pray. I am thankful for my husband, children and grandchildren, and the opportunity to be an expression to them of God operating in me as me. I am so grateful to be able to commune with God in a way that is real and meaningful to me. I am grateful for each moment of life and each opportunity to be an expression of light, peace and love!

Thank you!

I am incredibly grateful to LIFE and my PARENTS who not only brought me into this beautiful unique planet of ours, but sacrificed, loved and nurtured me with 3 brothers and 3 sisters and hundreds of good relatives, neighbors, teachers, friends.

Opportunities in life to serve others in big and small ways, to help people with their abundance of smiles, knowledge, caring, wealth and resources……for the LOVE in life…for the inner guiding light, inspiration and zest … for the scientific inventions and the spiritual forces in the form of Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Mother Theresa, Alert Schweitzer, Toyohiko Khagawa, Vinoba Bhave, Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter, Wangari Mathai, The Dalai Lama … Dr. Deepak Chopra who share unique wealth of western medicine with eastern wisdom, Nurses (Florence Nightingales) who serve the ill / suffering people ….. and simply put, the everyday miracles of life and love that keeps our world going, and going, and going.

At this point in my life, I’d have to say that I’m most grateful for my health. I feel in pretty good shape for my age, 57. And I say good health because the healthier I am the more I can do for my wife and daughters, the better I can do at my job and the more I can get out of meditation. I’m also grateful for my life, this time around, because without which the above would not be possible. And lastly, how can I forget all the great spiritual masters who came before us and pointed the way. I am grateful for the ones known and unknown. We live in a wonderful universe, thank you.
-
I am grateful for all that I have, all that I am, and all that I am yet to become. I am grateful to my husband for his kindness, his generosity, his love and his support in everything that I do, I am also grateful for everything that he does for us in, both our lives. I am so very grateful to the many people that have come into my life since I have begun teaching Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga & Pilates,and the various other services I offer, these people have truly been a blessing to me and I feel humbled to be able to reach out and help. I have always said, “if I can reach out and touch just one person, then I will have fulfilled my Dharma in life”, little did I know that by reaching out and touching one, I have really touched many. And for this I am very grateful. Namasté

Yesterday my children and I were traveling and playing the “appreciation game” my heart soared hearing the many brilliant things that they found to appreciate and be grateful and thankful about. I am most grateful for my ability to be awakening into the greatest truths of love, light and understanding. About all of the universal laws that exist and work so beautifully. For the breath and for each moment as it is…no expectations just love. Thankful for all of the beautiful souls who are raising their vibrations and contributing the greater conciousness of the Universe!!!

I am grateful for being in this moment right now. Being able to once again experience inner peace.
Taking time for myself, having respect for life and enjoying all around me.
I love and respect my husband and the band we have, I adore my dogs and cats and the energy I share with them.
I am grateful for my talents, the changes I got, the changes I took, the businesses I started.
I am grateful for that inner voice, my intuition, my inner strength. I am truly grateful for all that I know, without needing an explanation.
Thank you Doris, Carl, Ravi, Barbara, Kathy, Gail, Issa, Diana, Debbie, Thadiwe, Diana, Mona, Gencel, Tove and those who will write after me for sharing what you are grateful for

Selected from my pool of gratitude is the ripple of my currently salient choice, in deepening the spiral of my life as of early childhood: holding hands with ever increasing soul friends & like hearted people.
we share a hope for better human rights and planetarian conditions.
and so I am most grateful to be held by our commitment to love, peace,creativity and harmony until it is so for many and available to all.
thanks to you who make it at all possible.
p.s. it makes an inner sunset and sunrise of smiles. -

I’m so grateful for every thing God has given me. Good Health. Good Family. Friends. Learning the eight-fold path of yoga has made me so stress-free, strong, loving, selfless, and fear-free…I’m looking forward to finding all spiritual people and their teachings. God has given me a good opportunity and I’m so thankful to Lord for my loving and caring life….nothing more can be asked for.

I am most grateful for an awakened spirit. This allows me (when I allow it!) to utilize intuition in all the hours of the day. I have been on a spiritual path for 6 years now, and while the beginning was messy and painful I have reached a place of joy in the midst of growth.
I love God! -
I am grateful for the freedom that accompanies really embodying truth. I am grateful for health and LIFE and love and light…and a greater opening to all each and every day.
I am grateful to finally understand my connection with that which is Greater Than I am…the possibilities, magic, miracles and power of co-creating a life I love and that blesses all.
-
I am grateful that the joy I express returns to bless me. The joys I discover on the path of life take many forms: beholding the awesome beauty of nature, listening to the laughter of loved ones, and taking in the freshness of a spring rain. The joy I feel is not created by these outer experiences; I am responding to them from the joy that is already in my heart. I live in a wonderful world that is created by a loving God, a supportive Creator who inspires new growth in nature and new growth within me. I give thanks for God’s activity in the world and within me!
-
I am greatful for a wife who is generous beyond comprehension and who has allowed for me to grow and experience new things and to not be scared of how I might change as I grow.
I am thankful for 2 healthy boys who regardless of how many times I screw up they still give me hugs and kisses every night.
I am thankful that back in 2003 I messed up changing the channels and stumbled upon Wayne Dyer’s PBS special “The Power of Intention” that has lead me on a path that while it was always there was obscured to my vision. -
I am thankful to be alive and healthy with a great family, a job and a beautiful home.
