Your words are my food, your breath my wine.
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
It is impossible to feel grateful and depressed in the same moment.
Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.
The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention.
Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.
Gratitude is something of which none of us can give too much. For on the smiles, the thanks we give, our little gestures of appreciation, our neighbors build their philosophy of life.
You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you
None of those material possessions do anything to make your life any better I know a lot of people who have a lot of everything, and they're absolutely the most miserable people in the world. So it won't do anything for you unless you're a happy person and can have peace with yourself.
Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have life itself.
Gratitude is absolutely the way to bring more into your life.
A good life is when you smile often, dream big, laugh a lot and realize how blessed you are for what you have.
We need to regularly stop and take stock; to sit down and determine within ourselves which things are worth valuing and which things are not; which risks are worth the cost and which are not. Even the most confusing or hurtful aspects of life can be made more tolerable by clear seeing and by choice.
Do not indulge in dreams of having what you have not, but reckon up the chief of the blessings you do possess, and then thankfully remember how you would crave for them if they were not yours.
Be thankful for what you have, you'll end of having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.
If we magnified blessings as much as we magnify disappointments, we would all be much happier.
Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.
Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns; I am thankful that thorns have roses.
