A Joyful Noise

A fierce and enduring gratitude

#ThankfulThursday: “A fierce and enduring gratitude”

October 26, 2017 by Melodye Shore

Let us meet just slightly west and south of a place called despair.

It is a place that does not turn away from difficulty or fierceness. And yet it is also a place of paradoxical gratitude, where images, metaphors, powerful language and practices of grateful living combine to bring about moments of belonging, grace and yes, even joy. —Dale Biron
