I decided that instead of making a list of new year's resolutions, I would choose one word to guide the new year. I want to make 2012 the year of gratitude.
I want to feel and express gratitude every day for all the blessings I have: my family, my health, my home, my friends. Gratitude puts life in perspective-- especially when things get hard. I know this year will have challenges, and so I want to be armed with gratitude.
Gratitude is a principal teaching of President Thomas S. Monson. I love what he says on the subject.

And I am so grateful to have YOU as one of my greatest friends!
I've never been one for New Year's resolutions but to try to remember to have an attitude of gratitude is a wonderful idea! I should work on that!
