#gratefulvibes - COMMUNITY CHALLENGE DAY 42 - ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE

Positive & uplifting attitudes thrive on Steemit!

Many Steemians are joining the #gratefulvibes challenge


Today's post author needs no introduction. @sunnylife is an extremely grateful person and an amazingly supportive friend to many of us here in the #gratefulvibes community. Today she is especially thankful for the warmth of the sun as she writes, "here, I am laying and enjoying the sun. I'm really grateful for everyday that I can feel the sun. The houses here are not build with automatic heating systems, sometimes going outside is warmer than inside the house." @sunnylife's wonderful post can be found here.


Paradise Found is grateful for the sunrise

Today Paradise is grateful for the beauty of the sunrise. In retirement I'm driving a school bus for a private school. And every morning I turn my bus east as the sun is rising. Morning after morning I'm treated to one of the greatest show's on earth, the sunrise!! Thank you Lord, I'm grateful for your amazing artwork every morning!!

Check out the Steemit Gratitude Journal

The Gratitude Journal that @cabelindsay started runs for the month of November. It is open to all and includes Steem incentives for participants. One thing that is emphasised, all of us may actively give and receive the gift that is gratitude. You can read more on how to participate in the Gratitude Journal here.

We can all use both tags when posting, #gratitude & #gratefulvibes.

Lets take Gratefulness to the next level

Here are two ways we can support one another, and spread gratefulness!!

Beautiful sunrise! My grandpa owned a fleet of schoolbusses in PA and managed all the bus drivers. Farming was his passion, though.

I'm grateful for some special 'boy' time with my son. @ironshield

The private school is a Christian school. They offer one of the best High School educations in the area. I feel as though it's ministry driving the kids and getting them to and from safely. Yea, everyday the sunrise is different!! Love it!! It must be special to hold your newborn son, enjoy!!

The sunrise is a beautiful thing to be thankful for!! I'm grateful for the sunset too and took this picture a few days ago from my back yard!! :) received_538270113204878
The picture really doesn't do it justice, there was more pink in the clouds than what the photo actually shows haha!

I think I remember that one, it was really beautiful!! Thanks my friend @snowpea!!

I like this

Thank you my friend!!

I'm grateful for my mom!

Mom's are special and priceless!! Thank you @otage!!

What a glorious sunrise! My favourite parts of the day, watching the sunrises and the sunsets.

The beauty of those amazing moments are more proof of the glory of the Lord!!

Sunrises and sunsets are two of God's most beautiful creations and they are a little bit different every single day, how incredible is that? :D
I'm grateful that it wasn't cold out today. I'm grateful that despite the snow falling all day, there isn't much accumulation on the ground right now. :D I'm grateful for my friends on here that make me feel so valued and appreciated with each comment they make on my posts or replies to comments I make on theirs. :D I'm grateful for the beauty that I see all around me when I go outside to watch my puppy dogs, cattle, and/or chickens. :D I'm grateful that my husband started supper for me tonight. I'm grateful that my son is willing to help muck out the barn when my husband isn't available to do it. :D I'm grateful that our little herd was well behaved on exit of and reentry into the barn today. :D I'm grateful for all the wonderful blessings in our lives, especially the blessing of living on our little homestead. :D I'm also grateful for being blessed with another day to spend with my family and friends and to be able to share my day with all of you. Have an awesome day all! :D

Love the sunrises and sunsets!! I have a question. What makes a calf a bob calf?

Me too, they are always so colorful, there is no better artist than God, he paints the most amazing skies. :D
I'm not an expert at all, but as I understand it they are the same thing, but bob calves are taken and fed milk replacer, the ones sold for veal are slaughtered as early as the day after they are born and no later than 30 days from birth. Most farmers leave them with the mother for a full day to ensure they get the colostrum with its mothers antibodies before taking them to auction, slaughtering them, or selling them off. :D

I really wanted to participate in this wonderful challenge every day but I'm a bit busy, hopefully soon.

Best regards,
#steemitachievers

A #gratefulvibes community on discord would be great!! Not sure I would have a allot of time for it, but would I need to? I love the idea!!

Greatest shows indeed papa bear. It is a great privilege to experience this fiery beauty every morning and an awesome reminder of nature's bounty put together by the awe-somest God. Thank you papa for sharing.
