Gratitude, when practiced daily, is a pretty powerful tool. It's easy to lose sight of all the amazing things we have in life and when you are stuck in a job or without one, loveless relationship or perpetually single, bad weather spree that last weeks, it is easy to over look all the things that make life great. Travelling has taught me to be greateful for so, so much. To overlook the "big" things holding me back and try to enjoy the small things that - in the end - make life worth living.
I fell out of a habit I had when I settled into a job again of practicing gratitude but with the new year rolling around and a happily placed promo from the beautiful Amy over at Designing Her Life I am going to get back to making a list of things I am grateful for and sharing them with you here and on social media. So for today, here is my list of why I am grateful I took to a life of travel.
