What is Gratitude Jellyfish?

I am glad you asked. Sometimes I feel frustrated by the situations I find myself in. For example, the other day I was annoyed by coworkers but then I stopped and took inventory of the situation from a bird's eye view. I thought to myself, sure they are frustrating me but I am at a job that I enjoy and I am grateful for the experience and paycheck. (Insert Gratitude Jellyfish mindset). 

This is something I made up.. obviously. 

It stems from one of my favorite songs and that whole.. gratitude thing. I love Jack Johnson and in one of his songs Bubble Toes he sings.. 

Move like a jellyfish

Rhythm is nothing

You go with the flow

You don’t stop 

This always stuck out to me, as many of his lyrics have. It’s a nice reminder just to go with the flow. Or flow like water, as our boy Bruce once said. Combine with this the attitude of gratitude and you have a winning recipe. 

Now, whenever I feel burning rage bubble up inside of me I stop and think.. I am a god damn Gratitude Jellyfish and suddenly, everything is ok. My own little version of Goosefrabba. 

Anyways, if you too see red sometimes, try this out. 

K THX BYE!
