Gratitude is the antidote to bitterness and resentment.

... the major rule in the American belief system - that anyone can do anything ... is a lie that we have perpetuated, and it fosters mediocrity. Knowing what you're good at and doing even more of it creates excellence.

Whenever we are appreciative, we are filled with a sense of well-being and swept up by the feeling of joy.

Gratitude helps us to return to our natural state of joyfulness, where we notice what's right instead of what's wrong. It makes us feel complete, that we have everything we need, at least in this moment.

In the moments we are awake to the wonder of simply being alive, gratitude flows, no matter our circumstances.

Wholeness invokes balance.

Gratitude is the realization that we have everything we need, at least in this moment.
