Gratitude-A-Day

I'm starting a new daily (hopefully) ritual that I call Gratitude-A-Day. I got this idea from Dan Pink's book "A Whole New Mind" and this is one aspect of a series of activities I'm calling "Right Brain Play". I hope to post a daily note here about something for which I feel gratitude. This is going to be a bit of a challenge for me as I've never felt very comfortable with this type of ritual. Over our family Thanksgiving dinner someone will usually bring up the idea of going around the table and sharing what we're grateful for. I clam up in the face of this opportunity and usually just listen. I'm interested to see how this goes!

Here are a couple of links that I used to get me started:
