"You can never get to peace and inner security without first acknowledging all of the good things in your life. If you're forever wanting and longing for more without first appreciating things the way they are, you'll stay in discord."
-- Doc Childre and Howard Martin

My journal will reveal
The gratitude I feel
When appreciative is how I think.
Loving words are what I ink.

Albert Schweitzer:
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.

What better month then November when most Americans are focusing on thanks to look at gratitude?
I have recently been reminded that it takes twenty one days to create a habit and it occurred to me that by starting a gratitude journal documenting the things we are grateful for by November 22nd we should have a wonderfully long list of things for which we are grateful.

You can’t be hateful when you’re grateful.
