It forces me to shift my thoughts to a very appreciative, grateful and loving attitude. Yeah, I think that tree is gorgeous myself! I'll pass your compliment onto her ;-) <strong>Jill:</strong> Affirmations, prayer, an "attitude of gratitude" - the more I practice this the better I feel. I am usually pretty positive but now I am trying to be more conscious about it, to "Be grateful" as opposed to "being grateful for" as I mentioned. I do love trees, too. I may love being near the ocean but another place I feel peaceful in are the woods. especially when I've been walking in a redwood forest. Wow. The towering redwoods, their thrusting roots, the cushiony loam beneath my feet, talk about a friendly feeling!

Mostly when I teach what's more or less a Jewish arbor day, but whenever I talk about trees all year long I always call them "our friend the tree". :-) It does sound like a great start to the day!

I may need to follow suit myself :) And that is a beautiful tree. Lovely way to start the day… I may need to follow suit myself :)

I saw your post on "The Secret" and since I read a lot of personal development/Law Of Attraction/Manifest Your Destiny type of blogs and books, I saw many references to the book so was pretty sure the actual secret was about the Law Of Attraction or LoA as most people refer to it. I wrote the last week's posts without having read "The Secret" and just began the book last Saturday. It was in the "new book" section of the library. I admit that waking up and saying "Thank you" was something I read about in the book. Something similar is mentioned in Wayne Dyer's "Manifest Your Destiny" book (and probably his "Power of Intention) about being grateful and ending your day with meditation and saying thank you. I've always had a basic if not profound belief in the Law of Attraction as I tend to think that things will work out for me...and they do. I've seen people who believe that life is a big struggle and that people are out to get them - and that's what they experience. Reading all these LoA books have brought my subconscious observations to my consciousness. I figure this is a sign ;-) Gregg: Interesting that you mention “The Secret” – after I posted I noticed my Google adsense ad was advertising “The Secret” which really made me wonder how adsense works!
