From the internationally renowned Network for Grateful Living comes this inspiring gift book for everyone looking to increase their daily dose of gratitude and make a difference for others.
Every day, life offers us countless gifts. Some – like a well-timed green light, the perfect birthday present, a good mattress, and a hot shower – are easy to appreciate and gladly accepted. Others – like caregiving, waiting in line, and bad weather – can be more difficult to acknowledge.
This collection of inspirational quotes and accompanying questions helps us to slow down, look anew at each moment, and recognize its gifts, whether large or small, welcome or unwelcome, hidden or obvious.
Words of wisdom come from thinkers and doers around the globe and across the centuries, including Aristotle, James Baldwin, Dorothy Day, Simone de Beauvoir, Emily Dickinson, Rita Dove, Duke Ellington, Anne Frank, Thich Nhat Hahn, Helen Keller, John Muir, Maria Papova, Desmond Tutu, and Alan Watts.
