Yesterday's Gratitude Cloud

What is a Gratitude Cloud?

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.
