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.
~ Br David Steindl-Rast
In prayerful solitude I find not only God and myself but the world and all in it, not as it sees itself but as it stands in reality.
