Borrow away, Joe. I know I am. I’v also enjoyed the insights that everyone has shared, including yours. That’s a great thought regarding the saying you mentioned. Makes sense; it’s not just a matter of enjoying yourself, but “appreciating” the fact that you’re enjoying yourself. Goes right back to the importance of consciousness. Thanks again, my friend!

I love the idea’s and insight’s that everyone has shared in this post. I may have to “borrow” a few Appreciation is such a simple key to happiness, no wonder it often gets overlooked. How many time are we reminded to “stop & smell the roses”? I always understood that reminder as a suggestion to enjoy myself along the way. It never dawned on me to stop and be thankful! Maybe its just me, maybe I’m a little slow, maybe smelling the roses was never intended to be a reminder for being appreciative for the many gifts that we have. But for me, smelling the roses now has a deeper meaning. Thank you everyone for helping to shape my life! Have a fun 4th!

Thank you, Fiona. Yes, the advice of the Buddha is very helpful and can keep us focused on the joy and blessings we already have. Thank you, my great new friend and favorite director.

Hi Bob,

Great advice, thank you for this. The part about focusing on what you’ve got rather than what you’re missing reminded me of:
“As you walk and eat and travel, be where you are. Otherwise you will miss most of your life.” — Buddha

In grateful appreciation,
Fiona.
