Dear parents and guardians,
Gratitude has made me a more positive and effective person. Looking at my blessings instead of what I think I’m missing has also made me happier. I feel that being grateful and thankful for the many blessings in my life has helped my overall well-being. In 2016, I read an article in Forbes that listed 8 ways to have more gratitude in your life. Here are some of the ones that resonated with me:
- Don't be picky: appreciate everything.
- Find gratitude in your challenges.
- Practice mindfulness.
- Spend time with loved ones.
- Improve your happiness in other areas of your life.
I’d like to add that praying and staying close to our Lord creates a sense of peace which opens up our heart, mind and soul for gratitude. In a world where there are so many challenges and negativity, we need gratitude more than ever.
Pope Francis once stated, "Joy, prayer and gratitude are three ways that help us live authentically.” I am grateful for this amazing community and our faith that helps us persevere and continue this year together. I am so grateful that we are continuing our school year and that our students are here to experience the joy of sharing our love and faith.
