I started a custom just yesterday of writing on a small slip of paper something positive that happened to me, a short prayer to God, a happy experience, a compliment I received, cheering someone, helping a person in need, etc. I will place these gratitude slips in a jar and when I feel down or sad, I will browse through them, and undoubtedly I will cheer myself up. In a few months, I will let you know how this experiment has helped me in my daily life. Incidentally a week ago, the local food store was distributing free plastic containers, and picked one hoping to use it for my pens or brushes. But after deciding on this project, it will now serves for a more positive and uplifting purpose. May I suggest you may try it too? You can call it the Gratitude Jar, as this picture suggests.
