A lifetime may not be long enough to attune ourselves fully to the harmony of the universe. But just to become aware that we can resonate with it -- that alone can be like waking up from a dream.

The root of joy is gratefulness...It is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful.

People who have faith in life are like swimmers who entrust themselves to a rushing river. They neither abandon themselves to its current nor try to resist it. Rather, they adjust their every movement to the watercourse, use it with purpose and skill, and enjoy the adventure.

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

Wherever we may come alive, that is the area in which we are spiritual.

Love wholeheartedly, be surprised, give thanks and praise then you will discover the fullness of your life.

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.
