Inspiring Quotes for Caregivers — 11/25/09

November 25th, 2009

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.  It turns what we have into enough, and more.  It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity . . .  Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.

~ Melody Beattie

At this time of gratitude and reflection, I’m thankful to everyone in the TLeC community for your continued support during a year that was difficult for me  due to the loss of my mom in May.  Your thoughtful comments, encouragement, and the conversations we create here mean the world to me!

I hope you enjoy fun times with family and friends this holiday weekend.  Cherish the time together because that’s what life is truly all about!

And while you’re at it, take a moment to thank a caregiver, too!

Check back on Monday to see who wins the prize in our contest!  It’s not too late to enter — entries are being accepted until Sunday PM.   Have a great weekend! :-)

    Linda…

    Thanks for the caregiving inspirations! I try to write and read a devotional every day (as a spiritual and writing exercise)…so this is helpful. I write a blog too (and recently linked to yours) about caregiving. anne

    Dear Barbara,

    This is the first time I’ve heard gratitude called a “tool” — a perfect description, I love it! Thanks for commenting!
