“Gratitude is not only the greatest of
virtues, it is the parent of all others.”
~ Cicero
“For the wide sky and the blessed sun, For the salt sea and the running water,
For the everlasting hills And the never-resting winds,
For trees and the common grass underfoot.
...We thank you for our senses…”
~ Walter Rauschenbusch (1861–1918)
excerpt from Thanksgiving Day Prayer
From air and soil, from bees and sun, from others' toil my bread is won. And when I bite, the soil and air, the bees and light are still there.
So I must think each day afresh
how food and drink become my flesh. And then I'll see the air, the sun,
the Earth, the bee and me, are One.
~ Edna J. Ortez in Five loaves and Two Fishes
"A tree is a wonderful living organism which
gives shelter, food, warmth and
protection to all living things. It even
gives shade to those who wield an axe to cut it down"
~ Buddha
“You only have what you give. It's by spending yourself that you become rich.”
~ Isabel Allende
