ABUNDANT GRATITUDE

“The starting point in the religious experience is wonder.”

Seymour Cohen

“If the only prayer that you say in your entire life is ‘Thank you,’ that would be enough.

Meister Eckhart

“Treasure the gift of spendthrift heaven.”

James Kirkup

“For all that has been – Thanks!

To all that shall be – Thanks!”

Dag Hammarskjold

“Before me,

Even as behind,

God is,

And all is well.”

John Greenleaf Whittier

“Your daily life is your temple

And your religion.

Whenever you enter into it

Take with you - your all.”

Kahlil Gibran

“Meditate in the morning and evening and at night before you go to bed. Sit quietly for about two minutes. You will find everything in your life falling into place and your prayers answered.”

Yogaswami

Wherever you go today, whatever you encounter find gratitude.

Even in the worst of all experiences there is hope.

When all is confusion there is a collective clarity within reach.

Write down the five things that you are MOST grateful for.

Share them with the person whom you think would be enlivened by them.

Thankful for my family,

Grateful for my friends,

Lifted by the people whom I’ve met,

Touched by blessings known and unknown,

Glad for my voice … and YOURS.
