I confess to being a Facebook user. I got dragged into it kicking and screaming maybe a year and a half ago (that's one thing you'll learn if you stick with me through my posts; I don't do chronological time; it's all "the other day" to me...yesterday, 30 years ago, it doesn't matter :P) because people kept asking other Facebook users they knew were in contact with me for my contact information, and there were some people I'd been hoping to reconnect with, so I gave in. I played some games at first and wasted too much time on the thing, but now I read the newsfeed from people I actually know and from vendors/organizations/celebrities, etc. I like, and that's about it. I learned moderation. In that respect. For now. I make no promises. >.>
The point to all this is that one of the groups or pages or something--they keep changing how things work, and although I can build a computer, I can't quite seem to figure out the logic of Facebook, especially since they seem to consistently change it just about the time I get it sorted--that I follow, called Positively Positive posted a relevant quote, and I wanted to share it. I follow this particular page not so much because I consider myself an optimist but because I'd like to be more optimistic and find that they provide some good inspiration from time to time. That's another thing you'll learn about me if you stick with me through my posts; I like to collect inspiring quotes and read them sometimes when I need to get my mind out of a gloomy rut.
Anyway, to finally get to the point, here's the quote posted today on Facebook's Positively Positive that I wanted to share with you: "To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live in gratitude is to touch Heaven." - Johannes A. Gaertner
So whatever you may consider Heaven or heaven to be, may you touch it every day and find abundant reasons to live in gratitude.
