One day this winter I was feeling exceptionally grateful for everything in my life and I said a prayer of thanks. As soon as this prayer of gratitude left me, I thought wouldn't it be great to have a place to go on the web just to be able to express my gratitude for anything and everything. A place that I could share with others, that they also may share their gratitude. That is how this blog was born. Gratitude Blog is a new addition to the Your Body, Mind and Spirit online magazine. It is a place for you to share with us and the world all of the things you are grateful for no matter how big or how small. As publisher of Your Body, Mind and Spirit.com, I am pleased to bring this new addition to you and I hope you use it as often as you like. Just go to GRATITUDE BLOG click on "comments" to add your thoughts and to share your gratitude. I am really excited to see what everyone is grateful for!

It's then that we begin to think about foods as 'bad'.
