In ordinary life we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we give, and
that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich. Dietrich BonhoeVer
This chant is an adaptation of the Native American Indian poem, In Beauty May I
Walk. I was really moved by this poem, and I later found this adaptation from author Angeles
Arrien focusing on the gratitude aspect of the poem. I truly believe that when I start my day in
gratitude, my whole day works better. I spend time every morning saying what I am grateful for
and end my day in the same way.
