Gratitude Is In My Blood!
Submitted by: DEE-DEE Q.
New JerseyI am a single mom who is living a life of gratitude and teaching my children to as well!
I am so grateful to Rhonda Byrne for helping me to appreciate life so much more. I have read The Secret and The Power. I also have practiced The Magic and even got my children to do it with me the last time.
I was at work one day and looking online at some boots. I wanted these boots so bad but knew that I could not afford them right now do to my financial situation. I watched them for the longest to see if they would go on sale, but they never did.
One day several months later I stopped in a store on my way to pick up my lunch and to my surprise they were in there for a lot cheaper than what they normally cost. I was so excited. I could not get them until payday which was a few days away but I just kept telling myself that they were for me. There was one pair in my size but I knew they were for me!!
I went and picked them up on payday. I was so happy. I got them home but I never took them out the box or put them on. When I went to try them on again I realized that they still had the alarm on them. I took them back to the store to have the alarm removed and to my surprise they were now on clearance.
I had been asking for a financial blessing and getting blessings all week. Now the boots were another $70.00 off!! The store said that they do not do price adjustments. I returned the boots because I felt like I was losing out if they were marked down and I only purchased them a week ago. They said that they would put them back out on the floor in 24 hours. Several women that saw me with the boots in the store said they looked at the boots and they were nice. I knew they were for me!!! I kept telling myself this.
I knew they would be there. So the next morning I went to get the boots for the sale price!!!
I saved over $300 on the boots original price!
This time the boots went right in my closet when I got home. This time it felt like they were really mine.
Also, after I got back today from the store I went to pick up my son from football and my car wouldn’t start. I did not stress. Instead, I found all the reasons that I was grateful for my car. When my friend, a mechanic came to check it, he was able to get it started!!!
A grateful mindset will get you so much further than stressing! Gratitude is in my blood! I can’t imagine my life without it.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
