Attitude of Gratitude!

I have been indulging in “The Secret” “The Power” and “The Magic” for awhile now and compared to where I was a year ago, I feel SO much more enlightened and at peace with my life 🙂 There are still some struggles here and there but I make sure to align myself with “an attitude of gratitude”!
Recently, I was in a sticky financial situation thanks to car troubles and unexpected lossed hours at work because of it. Yet I stopped and made sure I was always appreciative and grateful for my finances and last week, I reread the money section in “The Secret” where it talks about imagining checks in the mail.
Last week, my bank account was compromised but instead of being upset (as it would be a natural reaction!), I was VERY grateful that I was part of a bank that immediately shut down my account and worked hard to prevent anyone from stealing my card information. I even decided to email my bank to express my appreciation for their services.
Yesterday in the mail, I recieved a 25% off special coupon at a store I visit quite often for neccessities. Then today, I saw two envelopes and said “thank you” and felt as much gratitude for them as possible before I opened them. Turns out, both envelopes contained cards in them! One was my brand new credit card with my new information and the other was a special card from a charity I donate to that offers discounts and special deals when used to purchase from their store.
Technically, they aren’t checks but they are tools that allow me to save money and coming from a college student, I am VERY grateful for them! A little goes a long way 🙂
