Week 8 – Gratitude Mandala and the last week of this Creatively Grateful Challenge

“Reflect upon your present blessings—of which every man has many—not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.”
—Charles Dickens

This week’s challenge was to doodle a gratitude mandala. I like the consistency of colours and patterns which come together to form one mandala. In various traditions, mandalas symbolize a spiritual journey.

Here are this week’s mandala challenges and a recap of all the weeks at the bottom of this post.

“Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.”
—Oprah Winfrey
