Larry G Assorted Quotes about Gratitude 

2:10am Eastern Rested, mostly; there will be naps

Just for today I say,

 pledge to remain free another day.

 By extending my hands to all

 Friendship and encouragement will fall

.. ..to each and every one,

 who joins us in this fun.

 This message is directed at,

 Anyone who will do just that,

 Stay free from the evil weed (tobacco)

 ..and you’ve done the deed.

Charlotte Eriksson

“There comes a time for healing

no matter how broken you are right now;

no matter how heavy your heart is right now.

There comes a time when you will go outside

and let the sun shine on your face

and let the wind touch your hair

and you will not be tired by just simply being awake.

There comes a time when you will be happy to be alive again

and that day you will appreciate your own being

because now you know the other side.

Now you know the opposite.

Now you know what it’s like to not be sure if you really are; who

you really are;

if you simply are, anymore.

And that day

will be the beginning of everything.”

“When in doubt, look inwards and honestly count your blessings. We often grumble when things go wrong or when we get hurt. We are prone to crib about what we don’t have and forget to see what we already have. Comparing yourself with the good fortune of others is bound to bring a lot of misery in its wake. If you really want to get into that comparison mood then compare yourself with those who are less fortunate. A man who had just lost his job was sitting dejectedly in his balcony and watching people pass by when his eyes fell on a beggar who was rummaging through garbage for some food. The man in the balcony felt happy that at least he had enough to eat and was not reduced to what the beggar was doing. The beggar saw a one legged man who was hobbling around on crutches and felt happy that he had all his limbs intact. The one legged man saw a man being taken in a wheel chair and counted himself fortunate that he could at least move around on his own. The man in the wheel chair saw a hearse taking away a dead body and thanked God that he was alive.”

“I also saw under the sun this example of wisdom that greatly impressed me: There was once a small city with only a few people in it. And a powerful king came against it, surrounded it and built huge siege works against it. Now there lived in that city a man poor but wise, and he saved the city by his wisdom. But nobody remembered that poor man.”

“Do not make people feel overly indebted to you. In their quest to restore the illusive balance and wipe out the debt, they will demonize and attribute wrongdoings to you. Instead, give with love and receive with gratitude.”

“I know I should be reassuring him that everything's all right, that he needn't worry, but I can't. Instead I'm talking to someone I don't know who isn't even there. Thank you, I'm saying. Thank you for Lucy, thank you for Claire and for Daniel, thank you for this cold and this blood and this pain. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

“The Awakening Land" p615

What was the world coming to and what hearty pleasures folks today missed out of life! One bag of meal her pap said, used to make a whole family rejoice. Now folks came ungrateful from the store, grumbling they had to carry such a heavy market basket. Was that the way this great new country of hers was going to go? The easier they made life, the weaker and sicker the race had to get? Once a majority of the men got weak and soft, what weak, harmful ways would they vote the country into then? Well, her pap's generation could get down on their knees and thank the Almighty they lived and died when they did. How would they ever have come and settled this wild country if they said to each other, "Ain't you afeard?" How would her pappy have fetched them the long way out here on foot if he'd kept asking all the time, "Are you all right! How do ye feel? Do ye reckon ye kin make it?" No, those old time folks she knew were scared of nothing, or if they were, they didn't say so. They knew they ran bad risks moving into Indian country, but they had to die some time. They might as well live as they pleased and let others bury them when the time came. Now Libby's generation, it seemed, lived mostly to study and fret about ailing and dying.”

“In the moment when you are hurt…

Sit with yourself, let yourself feel the hurt,

acknowledge the shames it touched and

accept them.

Hug yourself, let yourself cry. Let yourself

Shout. Let it all out. No it's not lame.

Embrace your shames. But do not go

and sink with them.

You are a fighter, turn them around.

You will grow through it, if you Let yourself.

And once you have gone past it all,

don't forget to look back and appreciate

the growth.

Thank the pain and always keep Gratitude above Hurtitude.”

“Life is short. Things can change very suddenly. Make the best of every situation. Look for the silver lining. Maintain a positive mindset. Remain optimistic. Never give up hope. Savor every day you are given. Live with gratitude. Appreciate even the smallest things. Genuinely do the best you can, and once you do, don't dimish this by undermining your efforts by whatever limitations you face. Acceptance can be hard at times, but it is necessary to keep moving forward. In order to deal with situations as they come in the best manner possible, we must let go of things we have no control over. Energy must go towards the here and now. Be cognizant of your blessings, of how precious life is. Live with gratitude and appreciate every moment.”

― Akiroq Brost
