Over the last two months, I've written quite a few articles about gratitude. And while thinking about them today, it dawned on me to ask, "what are you grateful about?" Feel free to send a comment and share.

It's that time of the year and I know that many people find themselves bummed out because the economy doesn't allow them to spend lots of money. Many people are out of work and are doing everything they can to survive.

I guess the mindset of not feeling whole because of your inability to participate in the maddening shopping mall parades highlight the doldrums that make an otherwise festive season the prescription of depression.

Come on folks. Lighten up.

I am truly happy and grateful about a number of things.

I'm grateful for being alive and look forward to the continuance of being productive and relevant. I'm grateful for my health and sanity. I'm grateful for my mom--she's 84 and still spry. I'm grateful for my daughter--she's a special youngster and has grown to be a very interesting young adult. I'm grateful for those people that I call friend--I can only shake my head about this group of twisted individuals. And of course I'm grateful for the special person in my life--I can write a book about her...hmmm, that's an idea. Perhaps I will.

Anyway, I look forward to next year and all of those opportunities to share and inform...to write and educate...to teach and entertain...to learn and grow.

In the spirit of the holiday season, here is a link to a site that's featured in my book, "The Top 25 Things You Can Do to Change Your Life for the Better...Forever". At the link, you'll find my rendition of the Christmas Song. Let me know what you think. I was told that I have a future as a vocalist. Hmmmm, imagine that. Anyway, please enjoy. http://www.singsnap.com/snap/r/ba1268bcb.

Happy Holidays to you all.
