Happiness is not what makes us grateful. It is gratefulness that makes us happy – David Steindl-Rast (from http://www.gratefulness.org)
The more alert we become to the blessing that flows into us through everything we touch, the more our own touch will bring blessing. -David Steindl-Rast, A Listening Heart
As I express my gratitude, I become more deeply aware of it. And the greater my awareness, the greater my need to express it. David Steindl-Rast Friends of Silence newsletter, December 2008 – from Gratefulness.org
