Gratitude
Updated: Dec 9, 2019
As Thanksgiving approaches, I have been reflecting on the power of gratitude. Gratitude evokes positive emotions that soothe distress and give us a more expansive view of our lives. Gratitude reminds us that we are all connected, and it opens our heart for new connections. Here are some inspiring quotes about gratitude for this Thanksgiving Holiday:
“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity… It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
– Melody Beattie
“When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears.”
– Tony Robbins
“Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind.”
- Lionel Hampton
“At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.”
– Albert Schweitzer
“The deepest craving of human nature is the need to be appreciated.”
– William James
