How to Be Grateful for Your Ex

"It all starts with a SMILE"

I've long acknowledged that gratitude is one of the healthiest
attitudes you can have and provides you with some of the best
energy. And a healthy humor nature allows you to have more
choice over your state of being and your attitudes.

Sometimes it takes perspective to have gratitude, but a
determined humor being can find gratitude anywhere if she
chooses.

Case in point, a friend of mine experienced a horrendous
business failure four years ago. As his world was crumbling
around him, his wife left him. The ensuring pain motivated him
to seek personal help that has changed him completely. So much
that he tells me he wouldn't give up who he is today to go back
and change all those previously crushing failures.

He told me, without sarcasm, that he has found gratitude in his
wife's leaving him at a time when he felt he desperately needed
her support.

Responding to my quizzical expression, he explained that if his
wife had been supportive he has no doubt that he would've felt
just enough relief from his pain that he wouldn't have found it
necessary to make all his personal changes. Since his personal
transformation has changed his life immeasurably for the better,
he has been able to accept that his wife was exactly the right
person to have in his life at that time.

My friend has used his humor nature to transform what could
easily be a life-long resentment into gratitude. Whether he
viewed his wife with resentment or gratitude would not change
what happened, so he has chosen to love himself enough to fuel
forgiveness over anger. And because he feeds gratitude rather
than resentment, he is not burdened with the weight of a
self-destructive state of being.

That is the power of gratitude. And that is the power of your
humor nature. It can help you do what some would deem
impossible!

Happy birthday to the greatest gift I've ever received today -
my wife!

Trying to use the law of attraction without the natural medicine
of humor is like flying from New York to California in an old crop
duster. You’ll probably get there, but it’ll be noisier, dirtier,
less safe, and take a heck of a lot longer than flying in a modern
jet aircraft. The natural medicine of humor is tailor-made for
deliberate creation. Like the old commercial said, if you’re a
student of the law of attraction, you shouldn’t leave home without
it!
