Dear Jane ...

Dear Jane,

How many times have we said to each other, "I wish we lived closer together."? I've enjoyed watching our friendship blossom and grow over the years, from brief emails, to long discussions about photography, all things French, and any blog titled with numbers. Your thoughts on art, films, fashion, and life, really, always get me excited about something new. I've often been touched by your kindness and generosity. And today is no exception.

On receipt of your latest gift, I find myself reflecting on how perfectly you know the right thing at the right time. Thank you for this wonderful graduation and early birthday gift. A Collection a Day is perfection. Thank you!

Love,

Rita

WELCOME TO 365 Gratitude Project!

Gratitude: Noun; The quality or feeling of being grateful or thankful.

Thank you. Two little words. A simple idea, not particularly new, or inventive, but put to use, powerful. In recent years, this term has taken on a whole new meaning for many people, being written about in self-help, law of attraction books that are presently on the bookshelves today.

The latest book to utilize this simple, but profound idea is "365 Thank Yous" written by John Kralik. In it, Mr. Kralik documents his experience in taking the noun gratitude, and transforming it into a verb through the simple process of writing one thank you note a day for an entire year, and in the process, he transformed his life. His simple act of daily gratitude expressed to those he loved and appreciated gave him a more joyful and loving life. This was the inspiration for our blog, 365 Gratitude.

We are a group of seven women, living in various regions of the United States, committed to the practice of gratitude in our lives in 2011. And, in doing so, to further share the experiences with each other, and you, through this blog. Each of us have claimed a single day of the week to send a thank you note to someone and write in this space about it. To learn more about each of us, see the about page to the right.

We encourage you, dear reader, to offer your own reflections on the role of gratitude in your life.
