Thoughts on Giving Thanks...



 
With the upcoming holiday approaching, there's no better time to reflect upon the many blessings that we have been privileged to embrace throughout the year. From good friends to good health, to good food and good times, to the joy of having work that "feeds" our imagination and our souls.
The harvest has been bountiful. 

In keeping, I'd like to share a few quotes to help us cultivate an attitude of gratitude to carry us through out the week, and ultimately through out the year.

Quotes to Note...

"I woke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new."---Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Gratitude is the most exquisite form of courtesy."---J. Maritain

"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; They are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."---Marcel Proust

"Ignorant men don't know what good they hold in their hands until they've flung it away."---Sophocles

"I would rather be able to appreciate things I can not have than to have things I am not able to appreciate."---Elbert Hubbard

"Every time we remember to say "thank you" we experience nothing less than heaven on earth."
---Sarah Ban Breathnach

"In all things give thanks."---1Thessalonians 5:18

"He that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast."---Proverbs 15:15


Sending a heartfelt thanks for your readership and support...

What are you most grateful for this year? Personally? Professionally?
