Elizabeth Gilbert spoke so sincerely when she appeared 2x on Oprah this Fall. She is the author of Eat, Pray, Love. I would strongly encourage everyone to read this book if they have not already done so. At the end of the show, Oprah asked her how she stays so positive when bad things happen... her response was..."Every night as I lie in bed, I say thank you for 2 things that I am grateful for and then I think of 1 single, specific moment that was the best moment of the day..." For example, last night, I said, "Thank you for my 4 healthy, beautiful children." "Thank you that I am going to be a grandmother." The best moment of the day was when we walked down to the Community Gardens and the kids got to see tomatoes and green peppers and chile peppers actually growing on the vine. The look on their faces was priceless!
