Hi Everyone! On Thursday we celebrate a day of Thanksgiving. This
morning someone came into my day and brought to my attention how
thankful I should be, how very fortunate I am. It is with a deeper sense
of gratitude, I chose the quotes for the day. Jane
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others."
~Marcus Tullis Cicero
"No one who achieves success does so without the help of others. The wise
and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude."
~Alfred North Whitehead
"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not
giving it." ~William Arthur Ward
"Forget yesterday--it has already forgotten you. Don't sweat tomorrow--you
haven't even met. Instead, open your eyes and your heart to a truly precious
gift--today." ~Steve Maraboli
"The only people with whom you should try to get even are those who have
helped you." ~John E. Southard
"In ordinary life, we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we
give, and that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich."
~Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"I truly believe we can either see the connections, celebrate them, and express
gratitude for our blessings, or we can see life as a string of coincidences that
have no meaning or connection. For me, I'm going to believe in miracles,
celebrate life, rejoice in the views of eternity, and hope my choices will create
a positive ripple effect in the lives of others. This is my choice."
~Mike Ericksen
"Keep your eyes open; try to catch people in your company doing something
right, then praise them for it." ~Tom Hopkins
"This is a wonderful day. I've never seen this one before."
~Maya Angelou
"When asked if my cup is half-full or half-empty, my only response is that
I am thankful I have a cup." ~Sam Lefkowitz
"Be happy for this moment.
This Moment is Your Life." ~Omar Khayyam
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I had a couple of favorites but this one stands out. Happy Thanksgiving
"Forget yesterday--it has already forgotten you. Don't sweat tomorrow--you
haven't even met. Instead, open your eyes and your heart to a truly precious
gift--today." ~Steve Maraboli

Good moning Jane. Before I pick my favorite, just wanted to let you know Chicago will hit 50 today with sunshine. Tomorrow the high winds and cold weather returns. Enjoy your day! My favorite:

I hope that you will have a wonderful Thanksgiving and we always need to realize what we have to be grateful for since it is so easy for us to take the woe is me route.
