When it comes to writing gratitude statements, some people are authors and some people are editors.
An author can sit down and come up with a gratitude statement from scratch. An editor
often does better when they are given ideas to help foster thoughts for their gratitude entries.
Our gratitude cloud helps editors write better gratitude statements by showing a few key words
from gratitude entries made by other users.
Ready to start a gratitude journal entry? It is as easy! Just send a text message
that begins with 'I am grateful for'
to (717) 674-2779 in the U.S.,
or (778) 400-0444 in Canada!
We save your entries in your personal gratitude journal. Once you get enough entries, you will even have your own, personal
gratitude cloud to view.

1 I am grateful for discovering the Take 2 Minutes app! I have found that engaging in simple activities that it has helped me change my perspective on things.
2 This app really saves me somedays. In many ways.
3 Keep it up! You're doing an awesome job and positively impacting a lot of people - probably in ways we don't even know.
4 The journals also had prompts that were available as an additional activity in the journal, which allowed me to reflect on other things in my life that bring me joy or that I am grateful for in general. I found this very helpful because occasionally the prompt would be related to media or music, and allowed me to reflect on the joy I feel from those things, as well as how grateful I am to have them as a resource in my life.
5 I am grateful for holding myself to complete activites even on the days I didn't want to. I can feel my mind starting to think of the positive things and getting excited to write down whatever happened on my 3 good things later that day.
