A one second gratitude quote is like taking a med for instant peace*. It’s more meditation than medication, but the idea is the same-gratitude diminishes pain and gives us a chance to live the best life possible. Before we get to our quotes (and your meds!), let’s talk a little bit about what gratitude can do for us.
The Magic of Gratitude
With gratitude comes acceptance. When we accept life as it is, we are more likely to accept ourselves as we are. Self-acceptance brings acceptance of others and increases the love in your life. When you appreciate what you have, you’ll tend to get more opportunities. Who would you rather be around-someone who complains or someone who is thankful? Connection, abundance, and serenity can be yours in a second or less. Anytime you need a dose, just come to this page for your meds (meditations, that is).
Love, prosperity, and peace. These are just some of the things we’ll gather together on our one second journeys. Are you ready for some instant grati-tude-ification?
