grateful/joy

I get inspirational readings sent to my e-mail and today's was so good I wanted to share:

"Today, be grateful.  Be grateful for your favorite music, for movies that make you feel good, for your phone that connects you with people, for your computer, and for the electricity that lights up your life.  Be grateful for air travel that flies you everywhere.  Be grateful for the roads and traffic lights that keep the traffic in order.  Be grateful to those who built bridges.  Be grateful for your pet, for your child, for your loved ones, for your eyes that enable you to read this.  Be grateful for your imagination.  Be grateful that you can think.  Be grateful that you can speak.  Be grateful that you can laugh and smile.  Be grateful that you can breathe.  Be grateful that you are alive!  Be grateful that you are You!  Be grateful that there are two words that can change your life.
Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you!"
~Rhonda Byrne

"We are not proponents of long life.  We are proponents of joyful life, and when you find yourself in joy, the longevity usually follows.  Although we do not count the success of a life by its length; we count it by its joy."
~Abraham

Another great start to a great day!
