April 2024 Newsletter

Dear Friend,

The question of what is possible in life might be met with pessimism depending on your past or present circumstances. What you see as limitations at first may actually be invitations to expand your perspective.

Possibility means that which you can do. You can cultivate a gratefulness practice, you can seek meaning in all that is good, and you can deepen important relationships with kindness and love, to name a few. There is much you can do in your life, especially when you prioritize a daily practice, because the practice of grateful living helps you see opportunities you might otherwise miss in a hurried life.

If we share a commitment to nurturing a more grateful world and responding to its needs, imagine what we can do together, not just for ourselves but for each other. I invite you to take a moment today to imagine gratefulness as the guidepost for your local community. What would it be like for future generations to inherit such a place? What can you do in your daily life to support this possibility?

Gratefully yours,

Joe Primo
CEO, Grateful Living

The Impact of Grateful Gatherings

"Our first Grateful Gathering was a wonderful time of joy, anticipation, acceptance, openness and vulnerability. Ten people met at my home and, although not everyone knew each other, by the end of the Gathering conversation was flowing freely. Key words that emerged: presence and possibility." —Christine H., new Host
