I love celebrating Thanksgiving!
For me, Thanksgiving is more than just a day off with good food. It’s more than the kickoff of the Christmas season.
Thanksgiving is a wonderful annual reminder to take time to count our blessing and be grateful. Gratitude is so important to cultivate in our lives!
I’ve read so much about the relationship between gratitude and happiness. Research has also shown a connection between gratitude and better health.
As the United States of America celebrates Thanksgiving, we have so many reasons to be thankful. No, our nation and our lives are not perfect. But, in general, we still have so many blessings that are worthy of thanks. It’s a good time to reflect on those things.
These quotes about gratitude are great reminders of how to incorporate thankfulness into everyday life.
“Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good.”
~ Maya Angelou“Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson“Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.”
~ William Arthur Ward
Happy Thanksgiving!
