Less Than 12 Hours To Go

There are less then 12 hours left of 2009! I cannot wait to begin this project.

I have a feeling this is going to turn into something huge!

Can't wait to hear from you all in 2010 and see what your grateful for!

Happy New Years! Best Wishes for 2010!

What Is This Project?

This might work out to be a long post but I want you all to know why I am doing this project this year.

Fifteen years ago I was diagnosed with depression and pretty much the doctor said I may as well get used to it because I would be like this forever. And I would need medicine for the rest of my life. While I do feel better with the medication for the past year we have be unable to afford the prescription. I find without the medication my moods fluctuate and sometimes I am very emotional.

This is not a pity blog. I don't want anyone's pity.

I am finding my way through alternatives to the medication. That is where this project comes in. This is how I am going to work on making my life a happier thing. It is so easy to be bitter with the way the world is going these days. I was headed towards being a very bitter person and it is not who I want to be.

Beginning January 1, 2010 for at least 15 minutes a day I am going to write about something I am grateful for. Even the smallest thing will do. And this will be an every day thing. I can tend to procrastinate so this project is going to help me with that as well. I am looking forward to this.

I invite you to join me and I challenge you to either start your own gratitude journal or leave a comment here on a daily basis. Give me 15 minutes a day and lets see where we all are in one year.

I am looking forward to see what this will become.
