• Thanksgiving Day is a jewel, to set in the hearts of honest men; but be careful that you do not take the day, and leave out the gratitude.
|
| • To know the value of generosity, it is necessary to have suffered from the cold indifference of others. |
| • My whole problem is that all of my favorite things at Thanksgiving are the starches, and everyone is trying to go low-carb this year, even a green vegetable has carbs in it. |
| • Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it |
| • The Pilgrims made seven times more graves than huts. No Americans have been more impoverished than these who, nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving. |
•
I have learnt silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers.
|
| • As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. |
| • Thanks so much for being there on my side and supporting me all through. Without you my life would have been incomplete |
| • Thanksgiving to God is an exuberant response to giving me HIS everything . . by giving Him MY everything. |
| • Warm thoughts and wishes to hope this Thanksgiving will be especially plentiful! |
•
Some hae meat and canna eat, -
And some wad eat that want it;
But we hae meat, and we can eat,
Sae let the Lord be thankit. |
• He who thanks but with the lips
Thanks but in part;
The full, the true Thanksgiving
Comes from the heart. |
• So once in every year we throng
Upon a day apart,
To praise the Lord with feast and song
In thankfulness of heart. |
| • When eating bamboo sprouts, remember the man who planted them. |
| • As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. |
•
For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of bird, and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee! |
