Solitude and silence teach me to love my brothers for what they are, not for what they say.

Thankful for you

Because you appreciate the value of what you have, it grows in value. Because you are thankful for all there is, you continue discovering new ways to make good use of it.

Because you care, you find yourself making a positive contribution to life. Because you give, abundance multiplies in your world.

Because you listen and understand, hope arises where it never had been. Because you take action, stubborn challenges are transformed into lasting value.

When you forgive, healing begins. When you open yourself to truth and authentic living, suffering diminishes.

Certainly life is not all about you. Yet there is so much you do that makes the world a more beautiful place.

In ways you do not even realize, life is thankful for you. And as you continue to return that gratitude, goodness expands in every direction.

— Ralph Marston
