~grateful

To educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude

means to take nothing for granted,

but to always seek out and value

the kind that will stand behind the action.

Nothing that is done for you is a matter of course.

Everything originates in a will for the good,

which is directed at you.

Train yourself never to put off

the word or action for the expression of gratitude.

~Albert Schweitzer

None of those material possessions do anything

to make your life any better....

I know a lot of people who have

a lot of everything, and they're absolutely

the most miserable people in the world.

So it won't do anything for you

unless you're a happy person

and can have peace with yourself.

~Lenny Kravitz
