WORD FOR THE DAY(gratefulness.org)
Tuesday, Jan. 26
Just as a flower gives out
its fragrance to whomsoever
approaches or uses it,
so love from within us
radiates towards everybody and
manifests as spontaneous service.
Swami Ramdas
God sleeps in stone, breathes in plants, dreams in animals and awakens in man. ~Thomas Lavoie (thanks to Jeanne of Cronetothebone.com)
The ability to sincerely express gratitude is one of the surest signs of having achieved that balance of self confidence, empathy and humility which characterizes some of the noblest and greatest minds of our day.

WORD FOR THE DAY (gratefulness.org)
To be alive in this beautiful, self-organizing universe --
to participate in the dance of life with senses to perceive it,
lungs that breathe it,
organs that draw nourishment from it --
is a wonder beyond words.

Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV
