Margaret Watson Hopkins, nurse, crisis responder and author, is this episode's guest on Live In Gratitude Daily with host, Denise Joy Thompson. Margaret discusses the changes in her life once she discovered a different way of looking at life than what she learned as a child. Denise Joy and Margaret discuss how every experience one has is a reason to be grateful, even if at the time, there is no reason or lesson to be found. The experiences we have, what we learn is part of who we are today. Being grateful for our past can lead us into new experiences also. Margaret shares how she took the leap, with her daughter's encouraging and support, and wrote her solo book, though it was a 2-year process, Margaret is excited. The book, Wings of the Aurora: Northern Stars, is romance though it also educates on trauma and PTSD which first responders, fire, emergency service personnel, police and military experience. Margaret's book is available on Amazon.com, under the name M. Dixie Watson.
