Gratitude

"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it."
William Arthur Ward

"No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks."
James Allen

"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures."
Thornton Wilder

"None is more impoverished than the one who has no gratitude. Gratitude is a currency that we can mint for ourselves, and spend without fear of bankruptcy."
Fred De Witt Van Amburgh


I always squirm at the idea of anything being a "duty," but expressing our gratitude to friends, to family, and to GOD, is one of the higher callings of this life.

Wishing a very Happy Thanksgiving to all!
