This Friday September 21st is the worldwide day of gratitude a day that was brought to light by Paul Tillotson, a man who celebrated it with gusto while he was alive. In part to keep his memory alive, I want to share this amazing day with those who may not know about it.

What is there to be grateful for?

Yo Paulie, I miss you!

Started in Hawaii in 1965 at an international convention, it has roots in wanting to stop and reflect, appreciate, calibrate, our world.

Please take a moment to do something intentional. Give some gratitude to those that you love the most. Give some to those that you love a little too. If you do nothing else call your mother!

In my world I have so much to be grateful for. I reflect daily strive to be an inspiration for showing appreciation to others. Sadly, sometimes I miss the mark when I get too wrapped up in the whirlwind I have created. Nothing feels better than showing appreciation. If for some silly reason you are not getting it from me, call me out on it. I for one will be celebrating how grateful I am with everyone in my circle.

A Paul quote “Surround yourself with people you love and have fun, The rest is gravy.”
