- Five Things Per Day
- This is a pretty little book with space to write five things for which one is grateful everyday. A friend gave it to me for Christmas many years ago, and from that day forward I became a dedicated gratitude journal writer. In the beginning of the book, the author lists 100 things for which she is grateful, and as I read her list, I could feel my own excitement grow for I knew that I too had 100+ things to be grateful for.
Writing a list of phrases each day helps me to focus on all the good things going on in my life without having to fret about grammar, punctuation, or "voice." An added benefit is that the entries actually serve as memory joggers for me and for my family. On numerous occasions, I've been asked when or where the family celebrated a certain holiday, when a child got a driver's licence, when we moved into a new home, etc., and all I've had to do is look it up in the gratitude journal. When doing so, I'm usually amazed at the flood of memories that come to mind about what was going on at the time, memories that might have been lost forever if they hadn't been faithfully jotted down.
After the first journal, I turned to other journals rather than continuing to buy Ban Breathnach's original one. Still, I give her and her lovely journal credit for starting me on the journal keeping path. My only challenge is keeping the entries down to five per day! - 2008-04-21, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Just a journal
- This is just a blank journal -- so not much to it. However, it is a great way to make yourself pay attention to what is good in your life. A friend recommended each night before you go to bed, to list 5 things that you were grateful for that day -- and try not to repeat. It is harder than you think, but very rewarding.

- Simply lovely...
- Very lovely book for a freshman of Simple Abundance. Inspiring graditude verses included along with five lines for each day. If you have alot to write though you would be better off getting a blank journal.

- What a wonderful journal
- I loved this journal. I bought one for each of my friends. Sarah starts by pointing out all the "simple" things we should be grateful for, things we overlook which I found very interesting. So on those days where we feel we had a bad day and theres nothing to be grateful for you can go to that list and find at least 10 things. Its worth the money, you'll enjoy it.
