If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you will look forward, do so prayerfully. But the wisest course would be to be present in the present gratefully.

Maya Angelou

I'm a survivor of life. I try to give the glory to God and appreciate what's happening to me.

Mike Epps

I'm thankful for my struggle because without it I wouldn't have stumbled across my strength.

Alex Elle

Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity… It makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.

Melody Beattie

I am thankful for the way I was raised, to be positive. Even when times have gotten rough I have always tried to look on the bright side. Even when I was put down, yelled at and made feel insignificant, I still thought things were alright. I did realize when enough is enough.

Angela Merkel

Be grateful in spite of your suffering.
