RE: Constant Prayer: Replacing “Lub Dup” with “Thank You”; Living a Life of Gratitude
When my borther committed suicide this spring, I went through a REALLY rough time. This little video helped me turn the tide. After watching it, I went on a day long drive through the county my brother brought me to when I was 17... (the other side of Hell's Canyon.) I cried, and cried, but every time I passed another human I made myself smile and give thanks for the next breath. :)
HUGS!
Thank you. I lost a cousin to cancer this summer, after a five-year struggle. Her older sister didn't go to the remembrance, nor to the family get-together on July 4th a couple days later.
My wife turned up this country song in the car earlier this week (the day I stopped drinking, now that I think about it) about a guy whose son says a four-letter word, and, where did you learn that? "I've been watching you dad":
I cried through the entire song (she was driving, fortunately). She asked me why, and I said, "I'm going to miss my dad." I'm crying now.
Most nights my prayers start with, "Thank you for this day." So I guess I've been leading up to this.
Thanks for the video! Very uplifting. HUGS BACK! AND --

OK, it got me tearing up too. We are saps... lol!
I found this here at the perfect time & I appreciate you for sharing this. Thank you.
