"When people in numbers, like those here at CAS, choose

to practice, integrate and embody gratitude the

cumulative force that is generated can help create the

kind of world we all hope for and desire for ourselves

and for future generations.

The benefits of living a grateful life are unquestionable.

Gratitude includes several qualities. They are

thankfulness, appreciation, compassion, generosity,

grace, courage, authenticity, humility confidence and

other positive attitudes.

Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. Gratitude is

the complement of thankfulness. Thankfulness may

consist of merely words. Gratitude goes further and is

shown through actions.

The world has enough beautiful mountains and

meadows, spectacular skies and lakes. It has forests,

flowered fields and sandy beaches. It has plenty of stars

and the promises of a new sunrise and sunset. What the

world needs more of is for everyone to appreciate and

enjoy it and most of all take care of it.
