What brings fulfillment is gratefulness, the simple response of our heart to this life in all its fullness.

...our happiness hinges not on good luck; it hinges on peace of heart.

Gratefulness is the inner gesture of giving meaning to our life by receiving life as gift.

Grateful living makes life meaningful and full of joy.

Gratefulness is not just saying "thank you." It's acting. It is being yourself. A mother is grateful, shows gratefulness by mothering, a scientist by doing science.

At any moment the fully present mind can shatter time and burst into Now.

Gratitude is here presented as more than a feeling, a virtue, or an experience; gratitude emerges as an attitude we can freely choose in order to create a better life for ourselves and for others. The Nigerian Hausa put it this way: Give thanks for a little and you will find a lot.
