List your blessings and you will walk through the gates of thanksgiving and into the fields of joy.
~Garrison Keillor
as quoted in LIVING IN GRATITUDE, A Journey That Will Change Your Life, by Angeles Arrien
I’ve compiled a few inspiring words for Thanksgiving, as well as a few templates for gratitude lists or thank you notes in a pdf for you here. Feel free to print these out and share them if you are longing for a few ways to bring deeper meaning to your holy day.
ThanksGiving PDF
I give thanks for these hands,
how they touch, heal, create.
I give thanks for this heart,
for compassion, love and awe.
I give thanks for these legs
and all the places that they journey.
I give thanks for this body,
its miracle feelings and doings.
I give thanks for this mind
and all its splendid rooms…
I give thanks for the Joy
that sustains my every moment.
And I give thanks for the beauty
that surrounds me all my days.
~Ingrid Goff-Maidoff, from The Joy Book
BLESSINGS OF THE SEASON TO YOU!
