The Color of Pumpkins

Because of the overwhelming positive feedback I received last year when I ran this column, I'm choosing to run it again. And for those of you interested in what GABA might do for your positive mental and emotional health, please check out my blog HERE. Happy reading...

I once knew a man, an artist, in great despair.

We were discussing the concept of gratitude and the idea that when we take time to reflect on what we have to be grateful about, we open the door for gratitude to come rushing into our lives in greater amounts.

I asked this individual, one year during the season of autumn, what he might be grateful for.

One of this man's greatest attributes is that he speaks thoughtfully. It is an admirable quality.

True to his nature, he took several moments, and then answered, "I am grateful for the color of pumpkins."

It was one of the nicest sentences I've ever heard spoken.

This month, no matter what state of mind you may be experiencing, consider pausing to appreciate the beautiful color of pumpkins.

Happy November!

Note from Jill:

I recently discovered this great children's book in a local bookstore, and happily added it to my collection. It's awesome- for adults, too.
