Gratitude Quotes

“Gratitude brings more to be grateful about. It increases your abundant life. Lack of gratitude, or complaining, brings little to rejoice about. Complainers always find that they have little good in their life, or they do not enjoy what they do have. The Universe always gives us what we believe we deserve.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“remain in awe (and profound relief) that no matter how overwhelming and scary this journey called “life” is, when I slow down enough, I realize that it’s all just made up of hundreds of thousands of “moments,” most of which are pretty darn wonderful if I just take the time to witness and appreciate them.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“The key to a happy, healthy, successful life is gratitude. It uplifts us and sustains and draws to us what we want. Just as I did three months ago on a morning hike, when we focus on what we want with gratitude, we draw it to us. We become a magnet for our good. When we give gratitude to life, life gives back to us. When we feel grateful, people, as well as the abundance of the universe, are drawn to us. If you have money problems and you find a penny, feel gratitude with great intensity, and you will draw more money to you. When we give thanks for the situations and events in our life that are challenging, knowing that we are being blessed with wisdom from this experience, the very act of gratitude transforms the negative experience into a positive one. When we express gratitude, we draw to us people and situations to be grateful for. That is the magic of gratitude.”

“So, if you are not yet someone who on a daily basis practices gratitude, like an unending prayer or background music for your life, I invite you to consider the possibility of doing so, beginning now. Come up to the higher room. Gratitude requires responsibility. See and begin to own your valuable contributions and talents. Acknowledge the people in your life: those you love and those you may not love. In a true sense, they are all the same. They are your teachers. Be grateful for them. While doing so, realize how powerful you are, how moving your life is, and to what extent you are blessed in just being here. And then watch what happens.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“Author Elisabeth Kübler-Ross reminds us, “Should you shield the canyons from the windstorms, you would never see the beauty of their carvings.”

“Our lives become more peaceful when we stop interpreting everything that happens to us, and instead, experience everything that happens to us—no matter what its appearance—as a blessing in disguise. When we walk our pathway in life with a “Thank you” in our hearts, a “Thank you” in our minds, and a “Thank you” on our lips, whatever fear we may have been holding on to disappears, and the purity of love reappears.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“Gratitude fills our hearts with gladness and allows us to see the truth, empowering us to make the right decisions and take appropriate actions. With a grateful heart, we can see the best in every situation and everyone we meet, and bring out their best. Gratitude is also a gateway to the Divine. A grateful heart is an open heart and continually lifts us higher until we connect with the Divine.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“In offering up our gratitude, we open ourselves to receiving and living in a state of grace. This is the gift of the Goddess, and she is longing to bestow it on us all. Being so grateful even before you receive—this is the stuff that creates miracles.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“Fear sees limits, while love sees possibilities. Each attitude will be justified by the belief system you cherish. Change your allegiance from fear to love, and love will sustain you wherever you walk. A Course in Miracles tells us, “Love cannot be far behind a grateful heart and thankful mind …These are the true conditions for your homecoming.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life

“The stresses I had obsessed about seemed like cleverly constructed challenges that beckoned me to create life more mindfully and authentically.”
― Louise L. Hay, Gratitude: A Way of Life
