“In daily life we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful but gratitude that makes us happy.”

“In daily life we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but gratefulness that makes us happy.”

“The root of joy is gratefulness...It is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful.”

“We are never more than one grateful thought away from peace of heart.”

“Look closely and you will find that people are happy because they are grateful. The opposite of gratefulness is just taking everything for granted. ”

“Everything is a gift. The degree to which we are awake to this truth is a measure of our gratefullness, and gratefullness is a measure of our aliveness.”

“In moments of surprise we catch at least a glimpse of the joy to which gratefulness opens the door.”
