Gratitude

Today I am grateful for all the special people who have touched my life, especially my family and friends. We laugh and cry together and with them I feel I belong and am loved.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.

It turns what we have into enough,

and more.

It turns denial into acceptance,

chaos to order,

confusion to clarity.

It can turn a meal into a feast,

a house into a home,

a stranger into a friend.

Gratitude makes sense of our past,

brings peace for today,

and creates a vision for tomorrow.-
