Greeting and glad tidings ~
Our hearts are overflowing, a warm glowing presently growing within, as we move beyond our initial 42 days of the World Gratitude gathering.
Thank you for sharing your lives, thoughts, and experiences.

Thank you for your dedication to creating miracles, for the courage to dream, birthing (k)new visions, aspirations and manifestations!
Thank you for being YOU.

We believe our gathering has laid the foundation for an emerging new world ... one built on the principles and gentle strength of Love and Gratitude, and will continue to thrive as (k)new ideas, projects, miracles and possibilities emerge.
Many are present now, others are seedlings just planted, being nurtured through a healthy dose of daily Gratitude!
Now, Beloveds, we began this journey with a purpose -- to Align with the Heart's calling and Embrace the Great*Full*Ness of Life. We also invited you to set an intention, something to focus on and bring to Life throughout this process.
Today we invite you to re-visit this intention, and the journey, too, that has brought us here, NOW, together as One.
Breathe into your hearts and ask yourself this question, "What AM I Great*Full for today?"
Let this image, feeling, or memory flood through you, and fill every particle of your being. Take joy in accomplishments made. Release any attachment to how this might have been imagined, and simply BE with the beauty and perfection of NOW.

As you feel inspired, share this unique insight, experience, healing or prayer of Gratitude at today's blog posting.
Remember -- caring is sharing, and we each hold a 'peace' of the Grande Design. By opening our hearts, and shining Light on the beauty of our Lives, we inspire others to find and share the Great*Full*Ness of Life, too -- together weaving a vision for our emerging world into being, and laying the foundation for change with Truth, Beauty, Freedom and Grace!

Oh! just in case you were wondering ...
Yes! Our FORUM will remain open for new postings, as well as re-view. Our heartfelt thanks to each and every heart who welcomed incoming members of World Gratitude with sincerity, Love and appreciation. You set an example worthy of emulation and inspire us on a daily basis!
It feels One-derfull to be together now, during this time of mass transformation, supporting one another through the shifts, sharing wisdom and resources, and enjoying what IS with Love and Gratitude!
We truly are the One's we've been waiting for!

To close, we believe Dag Hammarskjold's little prayer of affirmation strikes the proper tone:
To Everything that has been--thanks
For Everything that will be--yes.
Thank you for standing together to witness the creation of a new world - and for the honor of being here with YOU!
In deep Love and Gratitude,
Stacey Robyn, Ken Herbert

since the begining of the 42 days of graditude a light has began to shine within me.It has inspired me to share that light with as many people as I can, if only with a simple smile. It cost nothing but creates much, It inriches those that recieved it. To find that it is being greatfull for what we have and not unhappy for what we don't. I can't thank you enough for the 180 degree turn around in my life because of the insperation of the graditude you have shared. Yours truely Johnny vanherwaarden

Hello, this was my second time through the cycle, and I joined because I knew that during this cycle, we would elect a new President and leader that could mean a great transformation for our country and our world. I am still pinching myself and reliving the memory of what happened. I can't promise that I was able to feel gratitude every day of the 42. But I certainly do feel it for those who cared enough to make this happen, and for the leader who stepped to the fore. I have prayed for and thanked him and us many times during the 42 days, and I truly believe that all things are possible for us now. It is a new day. For the part that the Gratitude Gathering had in this, I am grateful.

I have to say I LOVE that you have facilitated the means for spreading THE LOVE and to focus this energy create a community of like minded people. We need to have more communities of souls who actively spread the love. Without light and love we are doomed.
The affirmations and information of lives filled with light and love and miracles and simple synchronicities is evidence enough to make us all want to participate in lives of equal FULL ness and gratefulness.
So for your promotion of the atitiude of gratitude I am ever and always GR 8 FULL .
In light and love

I chose some of my friends as Masters hoping that they would remember their mastery in their time of crisis.
The gift I asked for them, I found within myself even though the storms of chaos reigned around me. In that I experienced the inner security, in letting go of my insecurities.
My intent is to join my twin soul on the other side of the planet. I realise it is with the inner communion within our shared love that it is important to make home in our heart space first.
It is in gratitude that my soul holds this knowing that it will occur in its own divine timing.
Much love to you all for sharing the journey within a community/ion of gratitude
Thank You Stacey Robyn, Ken Herbert and the ground crew of World Gratitude for sharing Your Guiding Lights

I just want to thank you Stacy and Team for the last 42 days of inspiration and fun! It has been great to read you every day and stay on the Gratitude vibe.
My own 'intenton' was to write a book in these 42 days. Well I never wrote a book before, and how long is a book? I decided on around 80,000 words and I'm happy to say that I have got about half way..40,000.
Please read my new post for details on how you can order this book in advance, to help me with publishing.
Blessings to all you loving the world well light workers...

We have just completed a Global Peace Initiative in Aspen with 150 countries voices represented. The timing is perfect for the Go Gratitude family to propel this global effort into reality. We will be in prayer for all Grandmother's who are providing foundational wisdom as we achieve world peace.

URL? You are wonderful and fullof thetruth. There was only One Creator knowN by many different names. This makes us ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS. Would we kill a brother or sister? NO. Then there can be NO MORE WARS! The world is going through a perging of greed, jobs just for the money, and the growth of green jobs and environmentally green dwellings. Our Creator feeds all the birds, animals, ocean critters and certain will take care of Its Beloved Children whom was the proudest of creations,if we just ask and allow it. The Holy Spirit planted within every Soul then guides and protects us. World Peace is what You are helping to Create and I am Very Proud of YOU.

I beleive our 42 days together and this election in the USA during the course of it has contributed to a huge change, nationally and globally. I feel as if we have made a SHIFT in the United States, regardless of who you voted for, whatever your political party or belief, that has resulted in a huge majority of Americans who have confessed publicly to the world that they have begun the journey of erasing a stain that has been on the “soul” of our country for more than 200 years—one of racism, fear, intolerance, mistreatment and disrespect of many people of color and backgrounds…Native Americans, Hispanics, African Americans, Asians, the Jewish community and more…and we have begun a new future that both John McCain and Barack Obama have embraced of “reaching across the aisle” to each other -- a time for choice, when we each can exercise our right to cast our vote for healing -- as ONE Nation under God, indivisible, with justice and liberty for all...
Alice Walker is one of the most influential writers of our time – and has once again used words in a most powerful way which I have posted below —with a message to us ALL even though her letter might be addressed to Barack Obama…she closes with the words WE ARE THE ONES WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!
Let us “brighten the world” with the way we live our lives….Love, Denise

> Well done. We knew, through all the generations, that you were with us, in

> that you would actually appear, someday, was part of our strength. Seeing
> you take your rightful place, based solely on your wisdom, stamina and
> character, is a balm for the weary warriors of hope, previously only sung
> about.
>
> I would advise you to remember that you did not create the disaster that
> the world is experiencing, and you alone are not responsible for bringing
> the world back to balance. A primary responsibility that you do have,
> however, is to cultivate happiness in your own life. To make a schedule
> that permits sufficient time of rest and play with your gorgeous wife and
> lovely daughters. And so on. One gathers that your family is large. We are
> used to seeing men in the White House soon become juiceless and as
> white-haired as the building; we notice their wives and children looking
> strained and stressed. They soon have smiles so lacking in joy that they
> remind us of scissors. This is no way to lead. Nor does your family
> deserve this fate. One way of thinking about all this is: It is so bad now
> that there is no excuse not to relax. From your happy, relaxed state, you
> can model real success, which is all that so many people in the world
> really want. They may buy endless cars and houses and furs and gobble up
> all the attention and space they can manage, or barely manage, but this is
> because it is not yet clear to them that success is truly an inside job.
> That it is within the reach of almost everyone.
>
> I would further advise you not to take on other people's enemies. Most
> damage that others do to us is out of fear, humiliation and pain. Those
> feelings occur in all of us, not just in those of us who profess a certain
> religious or racial devotion. We must learn actually not to have enemies,
> but only confused adversaries who are ourselves in disguise. It is
> understood by all that you are commander in chief of the United States and
> are sworn to protect our beloved country; this we understand, completely.
> However, as my mother used to say, quoting a Bible with which I often
> fought, "hate the sin, but love the sinner." There must be no more
> crushing of whole communities, no more torture, no more dehumanizing as a
> means of ruling a people's spirit. This has already happened to people of
> color, poor people, women, children. We see where this leads, where it has
> led.
>
> A good model of how to "work with the enemy" internally is presented by
> the Dalai Lama, in his endless caretaking of his soul as he confronts the
> Chinese government that invaded Tibet. Because, finally, it is the soul
> that must be preserved, if one is to remain a credible leader. All else
> might be lost; but when the soul dies, the connection to earth, to
> peoples, to animals, to rivers, to mountain ranges, purple and majestic,
> also dies. And your smile, with which we watch you do gracious battle with
> unjust characterizations, distortions and lies, is that expression of
> healthy self-worth, spirit and soul, that, kept happy and free and
> relaxed, can find an answering smile in all of us, lighting our way, and
> brightening the world.
>
> We are the ones we have been waiting for.

> In Peace and Joy,
> Alice Walker

Thank you so much for a truly inspiring programme! I can feel my heart expanding day by day to notice again what is all around me, the wonders that have been there all the time. I can begin to appreciate and love myself and all the people in my life. Something has been re-awakened and is staying awake now. Love and light to you all! Patricia

Well done people. My husband was out in the field on the big jd 4430 moving 1000lb hay bales.
He felt compelled to pull to a stop in the middle of it. He felt the wave of gratitude. But not Ours!! It came from the otherside. A Thank You & Love. He is super sensitive to the energy of Rememberance day as he has been a soldier many lives. And Now WE finally Get it. Everything is done in Love...Love of country. Love of man. Love of Family. Love of Freedom. It is wonderful WE finally Remember. For if not they all perished in vain. It's so we are FREE to Love Forever.
In Gratitude...Peace Be Forever
In Gratitude, Not grief... WE Will Remember Forever...Imagine Peace, Love
For the first time ever My Husband does not feel the overwhelming grief that drowns him Rememberance day
Only Love Peace Gratitude
Thank you Everyone
Ps I posted this first to my event page 11:11:11 Imagine Peace And it logged thru at 2:22
So I have brought it here for all of you to share
Peace Be Beloveds

I am gratefull for being gratefull :) gratefull ness...has been an adventure for me.. it started 10 years ago..i was watching Oprah.. while working at home..(painting figurines) and i did not watch her often.. a lady was on talking about depression (i had felt sad all my life ) ... and about gratitude..she suggested getting a journal and every nite writing down 5 (yes five) things which we were gratefull for that day..write them down.. before sleeping..well do you know that at that time it was soo hard to even find one thing... (incredible i laugh today when i tell this story..it seems i am talking of someone else)
so ..i got the journal and did this for over a month...
it was an eye opener.. the beginning of a wonder full journey.. gratitude IS the key !
today i will just look at the jeans i am wearing and am in awe ... i go down the line of ALL the people , not to mention nature's contribution...harvesting, marketing, distribution,i can be in bliss..over anything i concentrate on in a gratefull way...and i do this with everything else in my life.. woa..all the stuff.. all the people.. and now i even understand and know.. how to create my reality... now how cool is that...and it all started changing when i applied the principle of gratitude :)
I have added another principle which is , as or maybe stronger or anyway goes hand in hand with Gratitude.. it is appreciation..
thank you Go Gratitude .. xxx i love you,
