This is from Howard Thurman. I post it for you on this last day of 2011.
Blessings At Year's End
I remember with gratitude the fruits of the
labors of others, which I have shared as a part of the normal experience
of daily living.
I remember the beautiful things that I have
seen, heard, and felt—some, as a result of definite seeking on my part,
and many that came unheralded into my path, warming my heart and
rejoicing my spirit.
I remember the new people I have met, from
whom I have caught glimpses of the meaning of my own life and the true
character of human dignity.
I remember the dreams that haunted me during
the year, keeping me ever mindful of goals and hopes which I did not
realize, but from which I drew inspiration to sustain my life and keep
steady my purposes.
I remember the awareness of the spirit of God
that sought me out in my aloneness and gave to me a sense of assurance
that undercut my despair and confirmed my life with new courage and
abiding hope.
