I have been taking the time to notice things like:
~ the string of green lights I hit as I drive
~ the compliment I received
~ a text from a friend that makes me smile

These are gifts from the Universe to let me know I am loved and supported.  

When I spend my day looking for the blessings, I can’t take time to be caught up in the drama or the frustrations of the day. When you notice the blessings, the momentum starts to swing that direction and it gets increasingly easier to stay in that place of gratitude.

When I was first introduced to this idea of seeing the little things that go my way, I was VERY skeptical on several levels.  First, I didn’t believe anything went my way; and second, I felt really silly for believing this exercise could change my day.

But I have to say, I was WRONG on both counts!  You experience countless little blessings every day, and by noticing them, your day can change from frustrating to smooth and flowing.  It can feel contrived at first for sure, but after awhile it becomes second nature.

I like to think of the blessings as winks and nods from the Universe that I am loved and supported, even when I may be doubting that very idea.

Give it a try!  Look for the small blessings in your day when you need a pick me up or when you are feeling stressed.  There are countless ways you are supported in this life, and acknowledging the everyday blessings allows you to realign yourself with the amazing person you really are and the gifts that you bring to the table.
