Milestones Along A Thankful Journey

It's amazing yet humbling to know that this "What Are You Thankful For?" video has spread the globe to over 80 countries and territories in just a few days - crossing all languages, beliefs, status and geography. And there are hundreds of you that return back to the video to view it again - super! I'm thankful to all of you who have willingly shared this video with friends and family to help them remember and reflect on what matter most. A million thanks!

If you haven't read the phenomenal life-changing stories shared, you're missing out. Powerful. Penetrating. Poignant. Read it, and share your own. What are you thankful for?

Thankfulness is not an event. It's a journey. It's an attitude. It's a lifestyle. Do you agree?

How best can you walk this journey? What milestones will you need to trigger you to re-remember and re-reflect? What else can I do, can we do, to come alongside each other, to offer reminders as milestones along a thankful journey? Your thoughts are welcome…

How AreYouThankful.com Came About

The idea came to me this November 17th weekend.

Thoughts of Thanksgiving. My children playing around me. Missing my wife as she was at a weekend retreat - feeling a little helpless.

It dawned on me that I take my most precious treasures - my family, my health, my journey - often times for granted.

This video is the path less traveled for me. It's not about web marketing. It's not about creating a personal family video.

It's one for you.

And for me, as a reminder to remember and reflect. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it. My prayer is this video will help you (and all of us) reflect on what really matters and how fortunate we really are.

What are you thankful for? I would love to hear your thoughts & feedback by clicking the Comments link below. Thank you.
