Truly Thankful
In my limited experience I think:
- To be truly thankful for what we have, we have to stop looking at all the things we don’t have. If we can’t give up our search for the unattainable or the unnecessary and find joy in the things we have, how can we be truly thankful? If we cannot do this, in a way we are just pretending. Be thankful for what you have, if you take the time to look you will find so many things in your life to be over joyed with.
What are you thankful for?
“I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.”
—Robert Fulghum (All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten)
“I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way (s)he handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.”
—Maya Angelou (via kari-shma)

Standing outside the fire
Life is not tried it is merely survived
