11 Days Of Gratitude: Days Six to Eight

Let’s Start This Year Well

3 min readJan 9, 2025

--

2024 was a year with so many difficulties that I wanted to start this year optimistically and share it with you. I thought that the best way to do so is with gratitude, why? Because, in my experience gratitude can only bring joy, love, and more gratitude.

Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul. — Henry Ward Beecher

Let’s start this year with beautiful flowers in our souls: 11 days of gratitude. If you want to do it with me, you can start it whenever you want!

I started January 1st, and if you would like to read the first days you can see the beginning here, and here are the days three to five.

I’m grateful for the apps that allow me to write via dictation.

My arms and hands have been on strike for several days now and I haven’t been able to write by hand, type, or anything like that. If it weren’t for the apps, I would be extremely down for not being able to express myself through writing.

Although I am still looking for the app that best suits me while this lasts, I am so thankful for this technology.
