Three word Thursday...Blessings & Thanks

"All that we behold is full of blessings." ~William Wadsworth

"We often take for granted the very things that deserve our gratitude."
~Cynthia Ozick

"He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has." ~Epictetus

"I would maintain that thanks are the hightest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder." G.K. Chesterton




Any day...not just on Thanksgiving...is a good day to count your blessings and to give thanks. For the roof over your head and the food on your table. For family and for friends. For technology and for the arts. For teachers and for those that serve & protect us. For music and for books. For the wonders of nature and for the everyday miracles of life.

Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving day filled with friends, family, food and football.

Two word Tuesday...Aim Higher

"Aim higher in case you fall short." ~Suzanne Collins

"In the long run you only hit what you aim at. Therefore, though you should fail immediately, you had better aim at something high." ~Henry David Thoreau

"The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark." ~Michelangelo
