Gratitude

“One exercise that I practice
is to try for a full inventory of my blessings
and then for a right acceptance
of the many gifts that are mine–
both temporal and spiritual.
Here I try to achieve a state of joyful gratitude.
When such a brand of gratitude
is repeatedly affirmed and pondered,
it can finally displace the natural tendency to
congratulate myself on whatever progress
I may have been enabled to make
in certain areas of living.
I try hard to hold fast to the truth
that a full and thankful heart
cannot entertain great conceits.
When brimming with gratitude,
one’s heartbeat must surely result
in outgoing love,
the finest emotion that we can ever know.”
