GRATITUDE JOURNALS

So I am the Activity Day leader in my ward and tonight me and the girls of South Coast are going to be putting together gratitude journals. Very excited. 




Here's what we are using: 
-small cardstock books (from Daiso Japan)
-I made some graphics for the cover window ("Lets get Thankful")
-some other fun supplies (buttons, sequins etc) for decorating  
-scriptures and quotes on gratitude to paste onto the inside over and back 


I love that the pages are blank and the entries can be a little more creative. A sketch, taping in something, it can be a little bit more like your gratitude doodle-book, which is totally my style.



My favorite quote on gratitude: 

“Both abundance and lack [of abundance] exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend … when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present—love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us [happiness]—the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth.” - Thomas S. Monson
