Christmas is a universal celebration. Christians and non-Christians alike celebrate Christmas in some form. The wonderful article here today gives you a very different look at celebrating Christmas, as well as a very different day for doing the celebrating. The Greek Orthodox Church celebrates Christmas Day today, January 6th. Find out why and many other different traditions at @nikolina's amazing #gratefulvibes post here.

Today I want to introduce to you @jap60, a newcomer who just joined Steemit today!! Our #gratefulvibes friend Sashley invited her and here she is. Her brand new intro post is here.

Newcomers is NEW at "The Attitude of Gratitude"

To begin 2018 I wanted to add something new and this is what came to mind. All of us know how hard it is to get started. We write and write without gaining much. So here we can point out newcomers. I ask that you comment about a newcomers post, and I will find the ones that appeal to me and put them here (newcomers can submit their own posts). Maybe we can help them out. That's what #gratefulvibes is about, helping people!!

Paradise Found is grateful for Lesly

Many days I'm here at my laptop, reading and commenting and posting. Working hour after hour, like many of my fellow Steemians. Meal times come and go, and our stomachs growl. Well, this situation was happening the other day and @paradise-found received a big surprise. Our daughter Lesly made me a tasty meal that I was very grateful for. You can read about our amazing brunch here.

2018 plans for Gratefulvibes

The #gratefulvibes discord community has convinced me to continue the Attitude of Gratitude Challenge indefinitely. So we will continue doing this challenge. Thank you all for your continued support. We will also continue raising donations for WWH2H Minstry in Honduras as we have been doing, except we will send donations quarterly.
