Author Description

"There are things we naturally and spontaneously feel thankful for: our family, the meal we are about to eat, a kind gesture or a beautiful day. 'The Wisdom of Gratitude and a Dozen Ways to Contemplate and Express It' presents the opportunity to explore thankfulness through a wider lens -- that of the wondrous, intangible qualities, ideals and emotions that help define our human experience. Things like resilience. Perspective. Courage. Love. Created by Atria Senior Living as a special gift for our residents, 'The Wisdom of Gratitude' presents stories, essays and quotations that will help prime your brain -- and your heart -- for meaningful consideration of each theme. And thought-provoking exercises will help you contemplate and express your gratitude in ways that will enrich your life (and quite likely the lives of others, too)." --
