A Guestbook of Gratitude (AGOG)
Why A Guestbook of Gratitude? Why AGOG?
The origin of the word comes from in+fun. The meaning is about looking
forward to with eagarness. Gratitude and writing grateful statements
helped me find the fun and eagerness for life I was missing from
feeling ill so much of the time. In case your are not a daily writer or
not a journal person, maybe occasionally signing AGOG while agog for
the positive benefits will uplift you. -Elly
