曾經(jīng)被忽視的最簡(jiǎn)單的時(shí)刻，成了日記和生活中的亮點(diǎn)。雖然這本日記本沒有任何金錢價(jià)值，但它能捕捉作者每天感恩的時(shí)刻。
One of my most beloved possessions is my black， spiral?bound journal. It is a thin， wide?ruled， simple journal with no lock or key that I found at the dollar store. The journal has no monetary value but instead holds its value of capturing my daily moments of gratitude.
The concept of a gratitude journal originated when my little brother began his gratitude journal. Although he is only twelve， he has truly grasped the concept of gratitude. I remember one of his journal entries saying， “I am thankful for my dog because I love walking her in the park.” A simple walk in the park makes game?addicted brother grateful and joyful.
Seeing how my brother could practice gratitude daily， I was inspired to start my own gratitude journal. Initially， writing in my gratitude journal was such a struggle. On the most typical， dry days when I sat at my desk for hours studying for the SAT， what was there to be grateful for？ At one point， I found my gratitude journal to be a pointless concept and I lost belief in my gratitude journal. In the time when I chose not to write journals， I realized how plain my life was. I missed savoring every moment and taking delight in the little aspects of my life that made me smile.
I decided to continue writing in my gratitude journal once again. Even though I was not learning in a classroom over the summer， I still learned in a different manner. The journal has acted as a reflective， personal space for me to recall the past. The simplest moments of my life that were once overlooked are now the highlights of my day.
