In this world of snapshots and selfies, I find myself many times overlooking little things in life which brighten my day. While reading my Facebook feed, I noticed a link my friend, Daniela Pesconi-Arthur shared about the 365 GRATEFUL PROJECT. I just loved it!
The idea is pretty simple: you take a photo a day of something you're grateful for.
According to the 365grateful website,
"The project was created by Hailey. In early 2008, in an effort to fight depression, Hailey started a year long photographic project which involved taking one Polaroid photo a day of something she felt grateful for. Initially this was a chore but eventually it became a delight."Watch Hailey's inspiring video:
My friend, Daniela, has started her #365grateful project here: http://365reasons-mywritingshed.blogspot.co.uk/
I'll be posting my photos and posts using instagram plus the hashtag #365grateful and will be collecting them all at my Tumblr http://anamariacult.tumblr.com/
This was my first photo
Wouldn't this be a great idea for a writing project with students?
Coincidentally, this same week, I read a post by Vicki Davis about writing a Joy Journal which kinds of reinforces this idea of being positive about life.
