More From Miguel Angel Ruiz

A prayerful life is the key to possessing gratitude. we often take for granted the people who most deserve our gratitude. let us not wait until it is too late for us to express our gratitude. feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. if i gratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues. to express gratitude is gracious and honorable, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live with gratitude ever in our hearts is to touch heaven.
Gratitude Heart Keys
If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence
Light People Silence
The reaction to any word may be, in an individual, either a mob-reaction or an individual reaction. it is up to the individual to ask himself: is my reaction individual, or am i merely reacting from my mob-self? when it comes to the so-called obscene words, i should say that hardly one person in a million escapes mob-reaction.
Self May Language
It is important that when pursing our own self-interest we should be 'wise selfish' and not 'foolish selfish'. being foolish selfish means pursuing our own interests in a narrow, shortsighted way. being wise selfish means taking a broader view and recognizing that our own long-term individual interest lies in the welfare of everyone. being wise selfish means being compassionate.
Wise Selfish Lying
Everybody knows that if they're happy then usually the people around them are happy, or that people around them happy make them a little happier; that's a proved thing, like "i give to you and you give to me"; they all know that but they haven't thought about it to the point of every action that they do. that's what it is with every action that you do, there's a reaction to it, and if you want a good reaction then you do a good action, and if you want a bad one, then you punch somebody.
People Giving Want
Because gratitude is the key to happiness, anything that undermines gratitude must undermine happiness. and nothing undermines gratitude as much as expectations. there is an inverse relationship between expectations and gratitude: the more expectations you have, the less gratitude you will have.

A basic law: the more you practice the art of thankfulness, the more you have to be thankful for.
Thanksgiving Gratitude Art
My own personal task is not simply that of poet and writer (still less commentator, pseudo-prophet); it is basically to praise god out of an inner center of silence, gratitude, and 'awareness.' this can be realized in a life that apparently accomplishes nothing. without centering on accomplishment or nonaccomplishment, my task is simply the breathing of this gratitude from day to day, in simplicity, and for the rest turning my hand to whatever comes, work being part of praise, whether splitting logs or writing poems, or best of all simple notes.
Gratitude Writing Simple
...the silent reminiscence of hardships departed, is sweeter than the presence of delight.
Gratitude Departed Hardship
To be grateful is to recognize the love of god in everything.
