Gratefulness is the key to a happy life that we hold in our hands, because if we are not grateful, then no matter how much we have we will not be happy -- because we will always want to have something else or something more.

People say the #climatecatastrophe and #culturewars are exhausting. So true. I'm contemplating the advice #DavidSteindlRast gave poet #DavidWhyte. He said, "The antidote to exhaustion isn't necessarily rest. The antidote to exhaustion is wholeheartedness."

Thank you. "Begin by opening your eyes and be surprised that you have eyes you can open. That incredible array of colours that is constantly offered to us for pure enjoyment. Look at the sky. We so rarely look at the sky. We so rarely note how different it is from moment to moment, with clouds coming and going. We just think of the weather. And even of the weather we don’t think of all the many nuances of weather. We just think of good weather and bad weather. This day right now has unique weather. Maybe a kind that will never, exactly in that form, come again. The formation of clouds in the sky will never be the same that it’s right now. Open your eyes. Look at that."
