Motivational Power Quote

Show Appreciation and Give Thanks

"When you arise in the morning,

give thanks for the morning light,

for your life and strength.

Give thanks for your food,

and the joy of living.

If you see no reason for giving thanks,

the fault lies with yourself."

Tecumesh, Shawnee Chief  

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Show appreciation and give thanks  

Show appreciation and give thanks to the people who bring joy into your life and they will become the pillars of your strength.  

Focus on the positive things in your life and give thanks for what you have and strive for the things you want to achieve.  

We have it within our capacity to give thanks for each day that we are blessed with and to make the most of our day and to take joy in what we accomplish.  

When we show appreciation and give thanks we change our view of the people in our lives and how we see the world.

So true. Looking for people and things to appreciate certainly increases the likelihood of finding them. It makes everyday better.

Lou- giving thanks for what we have and appreciating our lives are sorley lacking in so many today, especially some of our youth.  We cannot be so blase about our good fortune otherwise life becomes meaningless.

Hi Lou, Tacumesh was a very smart man.  I often wake and start planning the day and forget to give thanks for the morning light, but I agree with your take on it, focus on the positive and strive to move through this world with a grateful heart.

Lou-  Love the post.   I know this is something I do frequently.  I am truly blessed with my friends, family and job.  I wish more people would appreciate truly what they have instead of complaining and finding foughts.

Thanks for the reminder. It is way too easy to forget the most simple things in life that continue to bring us happiness.
