Bounty of the Earth
Appreciate again and again, freshly and naively,
the basic goods of life, with awe,
pleasure, wonder and even ecstasy,
however stale these experiences may have become to others.
- Abraham Maslow
Our journey into consciousness of wealth begins with the realization
that we have already arrived!
- Michael Bernard Beckwith
Many a man curses the rain that falls upon his head,
and knows not that it brings abundance to drive away the hunger.
- Saint Basil
Thank you, God, for this good life
and forgive us if we do not love it enough.
- Garrison Keillor
A Table Grace of Thanksgiving:
We gather today in gratitude for the bounty of the land,
the joyful company around this table,
and all the other blessings of this life.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
