...I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved, for the friendliness and understanding and beauty of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of a waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.

...and above all I thank you for people with all their goodness and understanding which so far outweigh their vices,their envy, their deceits. Thank you, God, for life itself, without which the universe would have no meaning.

From Louis Bromfield's Thanksgiving prayer. Complete text may be found at http://www.malabarfarm.org/newsletter/page2.cfm?issueid=21&storyid=105
