The more grateful I am
The more beauty I see

This quote spoke to me in the softest voice, with no finger pointed. It brought a “hmmmm” feeling in my heart. I changed it just a bit, so we could all feel the warmth of this quote every day, not just Thanksgiving.
Gratitude is 2 of the 8 steps in the Zentangle Method. It was that important to us.
Rick adds...
Perhaps this is one of the reasons people find so much benefit in practicing the Zentangle Method . . . fully one quarter of the method is Gratitude!
Watch below as Maria letters this beautiful piece!

I am very grateful that, despite all the bad things happening right now all around the globe, I find myself surounded by people who love me just as much as I love them. I am grateful for the baby my friend gave birth to just 2 month ago. She teaches me to stay in the moment and to treasure it.
I’m grateful for my students, who constantly surprise me with their joy and creativity.
And I’m grateful for all the small things that give me comfort when thousands of “what if”s flood my mind and threaten to trigger another anxiety attack.
I hope you all are safe out there. Happy and healthy. Or at least mostly okay. It’s so precious.
