My World is hosted each week by Klaus and the My World Team, Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy and me! All our worlds are so different. What is it about yours that moves you, thrills you, saddens you? That gorgeous sunshine returned on Friday and I haven't seen our skies this blue in ages! What a thrill! Click on the icon and join us in sharing those notable aspects of our worlds! As I look around my world each week I am stunned by how much beauty there is and in many ways these posts are my way of expressing my gratitude for the fullness of my life. So, today's quotes reflect the gratitude that I feel.
You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.
Sarah Ban Breathnach
The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss.
Thomas Carlyle
God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say “thank you?”
William A. Ward
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
Marcel Proust
We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.
Thornton Wilder
There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.
Albert Einstein
