By looking up, by raising our eyes above our limited horizon, we are more likely to perceive the blessings hidden in affliction.

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

Any change in attitude changes the way one sees the world, and this in turn changes the way one acts.

The greatest gift one can give is thanksgiving. In giving gifts, we give what we can spare, but in giving thanks we give ourselves.

Faith is the courageous confidence that trusts in the Source of all gifts.

Try pausing right before and right after undertaking a new action, even something simple like putting a key in a lock to open a door. Such pauses take a brief moment, yet they have the effect of decompressing time and centering you.

"The root of joy is gratefulness."
