I think it&#8217;s about 10 years old. Actually, maybe, it found me. I needed this reminder to bring it back in close and count my blessings instead of counting all the reasons I am angry and frustrated with the world. Positive energy is the land of peace.

I feel like this piece of paper was a treasure map leading back home.<\/p>\n<p>These are still the blessings I cherish and want to keep. If I woke up on Christmas morning with nothing except the things I thanked God for, this list just about covers it.<\/p>\n<p>So who wants to join me in a place of positive energy and peace?
