Here are several of my very favorite “pages”….I put them on “reflections” earlier today, and they were on Pocket Perspectives in February.
A wish for today….a wish for us all….
taken from the wonderful TED video, Gratitude,
by Louis Schwartzberg
And the video…“Gratitude”
my favorite section begins at 4:44 into the video
A transcript of that favorite section of the video
And so…a wish for us all ….
“today,
it’s given to us,
it’s a gift…
it’s the only gift we have right now…
and the only appropriate response is gratitude.”
“to open our hearts to all of these blessings
and let them flow through us.
That everyone you meet on this day will be blessed by you…
just by your eyes…
by your smile…
by your touch…
just by your presence…
Let that gratefulness overflow into blessings all around us
And then it will be a very good day.”

HAPPY EASTER …..

Beautiful thoughts. Your post was the first I read this afternoon. I have been away from the computer over the Easter weekend and had over 200 emails when I returned! Still trying to get caught up! Loved this post!! A great read before tackling all that is before me.
Hope you are having a wonderful week!
