It is also a way for me to participate in a world-wide effort to bring peace, harmony, and an end to suffering in our own lives.
It happens this way: When we can feel in our hearts genuine appreciation and gratitude,
we are speaking to the web of creation
our expectation for peace and harmony to be returned to us. When we can see our surroundings and our relationships as beautiful and harmonious
and feel appreciation and gratitude for that, we are generating the signal that the Universe needs to produce that abundantly around us.

Here, on this website, vast numbers of us are putting out images that inspire appreciation and gratitude.
I know, because I am endlessly awed by the images I see in people's collections, and I write and tell them,
"Thank you for bringing that home to us."
The more we can participate in that practice, the better our world will be.
