The roots of all goodness lie in the soil of appreciation for goodness.

It is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful.
Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.

To me, every hour of the day and night is an unspeakably perfect miracle.
Feast, and your halls are crowded; fast, and the world goes by.
Happiness is not something ready-made. It comes from your own actions.

Feasting is also closely related to memory. We eat certain things in a particular way in order to remember who we are.
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

To get the full value of joy, you must have someone to divide it with.

Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.
Feasts are about abundance, and abundance is about sharing.
Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.
Life is short. Eat dessert first.
In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
