A Grateful Heart: Daily Blessings for the Evening Meal from Buddha to the Beatles
No matter what our spiritual orientation, one of our most universal customs is pausing before the evening meal to acknowledge the small and large things that make life meaningful.
A collection of 365 blessings, both traditional and new, organized by season, A Grateful Heart expands and enriches this custom by emphasizing the universal spirit from a wide variety of traditions. It includes blessings by Martin Luther King, Jr., Thich Nhat Hanh, Mother Teresa, Denise Levertov, Marcus Aurelius, Helen Keller, Walt Whitman, May Sarton and W.E.B DuBois, among others, and from such diverse sources as the Tao Te Ching, the Bible, and Native American prayers.
