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.
- Melody Beattie
My prayer today, on my birthday, is that I live a life of gratitude. Today I am especially grateful for the cool air, the birthday greetings from family and friends, and the chance to sit outside and listen to the baby wrens singing in this birdhouse.
