Let’s not make Thanksgiving Day the only time of the year when we feel and express our gratitude. An attitude of gratitude should be our way of living and our highest form of thought. It should come from the heart and be an expression of our highest self.
As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.”
