Law of Gratitude

There are 20 primary Universal Laws, and one of them is the Law of Gratitude. Its fundamental premise is that when you exercise gratitude for that which you have you will attract more of it into your life. It’s ancient wisdom that was lost and rediscovered by the metaphysicists about 150 years ago, and I believe it works. That said, here are some of the things for which I feel gratitude today.

I have a wife that I love and who loves me very much, and she supports and believes in me.

My daughter suffers no more.

I have a home that’s furnished, and enough money to pay for it.

I have two wonderful little dogs whom I love dearly.

I have stepchildren who treat me with respect and dignity, and respect my wisdom.

I have two cars that are bought and paid for.

The grass and the flowers are growing wonderfully this year.

I have some cherished old friends that I’ve known since I was a teenager or before.

I have some wonderful new friends who I’ve only known a short time, but they’ve shown me love and acceptance.

I have not found it necessary to take a drink or use drugs inappropriately for more than 12 years.

Even though I forgot to check before I sat down, there was plenty of toilet paper in the bathroom this morning.

I am relatively healthy for my age.

I’ve lost 23 pounds, and continue to lose.

I am discovering my life’s purpose.

The EMDR therapy worked and the PTSD is a thing of the past.

My beliefs sustain me.

I am learning to use the gifts with which I was blessed.

I can reach just about everywhere I might ever have to scratch.

God and I made a deal; I call him names and he laughs at me. It works quite well.

I see people all around me finding their voices.

Today’s children have brought a new consciousness into the world with them.

We have the Internet.

My wife made fresh bread today.

My sinus surgery was a success.

My blood pressure is well controlled.

I can sleep eight hours without having to get up to pee.

I know how to forgive people today.

I know how to ask for forgiveness from people today.

Without doing anything to deserve it I was given a set of spiritual principles by which to live that have worked very well for me.

I am almost rid of the wild violets in the yard.

I haven’t stepped in dog poop for a very long time.

I rarely have to cry about my daughter anymore.

I found a group of people who loved me until I could love myself.

We are all one, made up of divinity by divinity.

Everything here is an illusion, and one day I’ll be able to shake it off the way a dog shakes off fleas.

There is a bird living in the birdhouse just outside my window.

The pollen count has dropped significantly.

This is just a sampling. I could go on for a very long time, but I think you get my drift. These are the things I try to keep in my thoughts as I go through my day, and if I succeed inevitably I get more of them. What a deal, huh? It’s so simple, but it ain’t always easy.
