6. I have come to get an attitude of gratitude because of my life experiences....growing up, I have a lot of beautiful people in my life who helped raise me and my sisters. My parents were there, but we didn't always have the money to live independently, we lived with my grandmother most of my life, we also had a few stays at my aunt and uncles house. With these humble beginnings, I learned to take nothing for granted and to appreciate all I have. And as an adult, I have had many times where I needed to rely on others to help me make it. I have had a time in my life where I literally lived out of my car, and without the support of friends and family, I wouldn't have been able to face my day in that situation. I take nothing for granted. And I am very grateful to the Lord for all the wonderful people he has placed in my life to help me, and allows me to give back to help them and others. I am honored to be noticed of having an attitude of gratitude. Thanks Carol!
