Gratitude Challenge Day 1

I have decided to take the 21 day gratitude challenge. Today I am supposed to think about why I am motivated to do this and what I expect to get out of it.
I wish to show my gratitude in small ways to everyone around me. I can't think of a better way to begin the year. I am the type of person that basks in the joy of the little things. So, I seek to tell people in the hopes of passing it on and making someone else's day a little more joyful.
