Thanksgiving merits more than one day. We want it to spill over to the beyond, to temper the stormy ocean tides of life, to lap easily on the mind so our simple joys can snuggle up and meet us where we are, in the afterglow of gratitude, adrift in the buoyancy of a tranquil soul—-something puppies and kittens already know, and something I seek to learn. ——G. Hill

Keeping it simple----
Help. Thanks. Wow.
                   -----Anne Lamott

It is as simple as this: At the end of the day, give up your worries and give thanks for the journey.
      -----Van Morrison

Gratitude yields to hope. the simplest, yet most powerful of emotions we can hold onto at the end of the day. 
            – Randy Pausch 

Hope is willing to leave unanswered questions under God's guiding hand not only in the gentle and pleasant moments but also in the shadows of disappointment and darkness.
             — Henri Nouwen
