They smile more than they frown,
those people who practice gratitude.
They live in peace more than angst,
those people who count their blessings.
They understand others more than they judge,
those people who accept their own flaws.
They practice graciousness more than rudeness,
those people who see that we have been given the world.
They love with whole hearts and blessed souls,
those people who thank their Maker.

The Thankful know that the secret
to calm days and peaceful nights
is found in the gratitude of their living.
