“Counting our blessings can transform melancholy into cheerful mass; laughter and joy are expressions of praise and thanksgiving for life's glories. When looking at the glass that symbolizes our life, we can view it as half full or half empty. The choice is ours... The more joyful we are, the more attractive we become. When we feel gratitude for our experiences, it becomes easier to see the good that always exists. When we give a smile to someone else, we are likely to receive one in return, and that smile reflects a happy heart that is open and receptive to what the good life has in store.” GivingFeelsHeartJoyChoicesViewsHalfOur LivesExpressionReturnEasierGratitudeBlessingMassGloryLaughterEmptyPraiseGlassesStoresAttractiveMelancholyGood LifeJoyfulCheerfulCountingReceptiveHalf FullHalf EmptyMy BlessingLaughter And JoyHappy HeartPraise And Thanksgiving Author:John Templeton
