As Thanksgiving approaches, this week’s quote reminds us that gratitude isn’t reserved for a single holiday—it’s a way of seeing that can soften the daily stresses and awaken calm, meaning and a sense of joy. Especially in the swirl of holiday preparations, a thankful heart helps us pause, notice, and receive the quiet abundance already around us.

"The thankful heart opens our eyes to a multitude

of blessings that continually surround us." 

James E. Faust
