Cultivating an Attitude of Gratitude

While it's sometimes hard to feel thankful in the midst of challenging or stressful situations, it's important to stay positive.  Recognizing things we're grateful for is a great way to do that!  

Talk with a young person in your life about what you're both grateful for.  Keep a gratitude journal, send a thank you card to someone who has done something kind for you, help a person who could use an extra boost...there are plenty of ways to express gratitude and pay it forward.
