Did you get yesterday's post? The opposite for thankfulness is dishing out criticism. Ouch. I am very thankful for my life, but I'm pretty critical of things as well. So, then, just how thankful am I? Could what I think is thankfulness be a flimsy excuse? Sometimes we say we're thankful, but in the very same breath take so much for granted. Think about every person or situation you criticize today. Is your criticism truly constructive? Try being full of gratitude and then try to criticize. I'm finding that the two do not co-exist very easily. Maybe all our families need to be more grateful is just to decrease the amount of criticism. I bet it's a really great place to start!

What a tough but great thought. We are very quick to criticize and often not quick enough to praise or truly be thankful for what we have. Thank you for linking up with us at NOBH!
