Complain and then let go (Dump the baggage, the roadblocks to happiness.)
Openly Express Gratitude (The open expression of gratitude promotes happiness.)After all, everyone has something to be grateful for and/or something to complain about.

hello John..
thanks...the graphic ..compliments of my daughter... ie ..leading me to the MY FONTS site....

Hi Kim, was thinking of you last night while I was reading my book and looking at our beautiful portraits in our mbroom....Oh I love them. Then voila this morning I saw your note on my blog.
I just wanted to comment on your blog and say hi and mention how great it is...so much going on. I also want to say I love that Barker Boys portrait. What an accomplishment. You look super in the pic too..and it was great to see an orginal Barker boy! Summer is coasting by over here in the great North. Hasnt been so great. Lots of rain. Oh well, it beats the snow..LOL. Best wishes to you mate, have a great day...xoxoxo Lisa
So often more times than not people are never thankful until it is entirely to late to say thank you to that important someone. This can serve as a digital reminder as such.
Thanks You.
Hi Maestro Kim of Laketrees Fine Art Gallery,
My Boss gave me a free lunch break after eating on-the-run all week!
Did Meister Eckhart von Hochheim hear God say just two words, "you're welcome?" ;~))
Am I grateful I don't have the Time in the Bottle to join the Gratitude Challenge now or should I send my Time in the Bottle comment to "Complain, Complain, Complain"??? ;~)))

Your “Gratitude Statement” has been posted on the “Gratitude Site.” The URL is < http://areyougrateful.blogspot.com/2008/08/131-just-two-words.html >. Don't forget to come by and copy/paste the current list of participants back to your post. Doing this frequently insures maximum link benefit for everyone who participates. And by keeping your list current with mine you won't have to respond to individual participant requests to add them to your list. Staying current is optional. However, if you do stay current, you will maximize the “link-love” for everyone who participates. My suggestion is to schedule a visit to < http://areyougrateful.blogspot.com/2008/03/how-to-submit-statement-of-gratitude.html > once every couple of weeks and add the new participant links.
Please let me know if there are any changes that you would like to make to the post.
Thanks for participating. If possible, try to get others to participate; again, totally optional. Also, you can contribute as many “Statements of Gratitude” and/or “Complaints” as you wish.
thanks for calling by Mel...
will continue to update..
have a great day !!!
This is so right on. I've been reading a lot about the Law of Attraction and affirmations, and Thank you is the fastest way to bringing to you the life that you want. And it works wonders! So THANK YOU for sharing this to all of us!
you're very welcome Christine...
I just watched Schindler's List ...again (last night)...and realised that Spielberg must have had gratitude as an underlying theme....
