“Because gratification of a desire leads to the temporary stilling of the mind and the experience of the peaceful, joyful Self it’s no wonder that we get hooked on thinking that happiness comes from the satisfaction of desires. This is the meaning of the old adage, Joy is not in things, it is in us.”
- Joan Borysenko
“There is a calmness to a life lived in Gratitude, a quiet joy.”
- Ralph H. Blum
“Feeling grateful or appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the things that you appreciate and value into your life.”
- Northrup Christiane
