What would happen if you sat down to dinner with the likes of Alicia Keyes, Jonathan Safran Foer, David Lynch, Morgan Freeman, Sir Ben Kingsley, Alton Brown, Neil Gaiman, Deepak Chopra and David Foster Wallace? Fascinating conversation, without doubt, and one of the things that all these folks have in common is that they practice gratitude and have a lot to say about it. These thinkers and luminaries included in The Grateful Table make this a thoroughly modern book of blessings, both heartfelt and deeply profound.

Saying grace is one of our loveliest traditions and one that has stood the test of time for good reason - it simply feels wonderful. Whether holding hands and praying to the heavens above or waxing poetic about the bounty of food, these blessings turn any group of people into family, connected by the power of gratitude. Compiled by the editor of and collaborator on the runaway bestseller Attitudes of Gratitude, Brenda Knight has employed the practice of gratitude for years. The Grateful Table is not your grandmother's book of graces. Filled with fresh voices and contemporary expressions, this book of blessings will make every occasion more meaningful.

Product description

Review

"Silent gratitude isn't much to anyone." --Gertrude Stein

"Every day I've got to be thankful that I am alive, and you never know--the cliche is, I guess, you could get hit by a bus tomorrow, so you'd better be at peace with whatever you got going at the moment." --Joseph Gorden-Levitt

"It turns out that bliss--a second-by-second joy + gratitude at the gift of being alive, conscious--lies on the other side of crushing, crushing boredom. Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find (tax returns, televised golf), and, in waves, a boredom like you've never known will wash over you and just about kill you. Ride these out, and it's like stepping from black and white into color. Like water after days in the desert. Constant bliss at every atom."--David Foster Wallace

--Reviews

"Knight has lit the path of gratitude and spurred us to make this important spiritual practice the center of our lives. The quotations, exercises, and inspirational passages reveal the author's deep understanding of the bounties of spirituality put into our relationships, activities, and rituals." -- Spirituality and Practice--Reviews --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

A beautiful book to read before bed (a few pages a night) or on my coffee break at work. It really is a book to use at mealtime, but it can be appreciated anytime. The book is filled with beautiful and thoughtful passages. I bought one for my daughter, also.

I attended a reading by the author Brenda Knight who shared her story of going through some really tough times and then finding her way back to a better life through the positive power of daily gratitude. I am now reading from her marvelous book of blessings each and every day. and it is really working for me. I give The Grateful Table my highest recommendation!

What a beautiful way to start the day and end the day with this book.

So often I feel like I'm always praying about being grateful for the same things day in and day out until I got this book. It's categorized by month and has short paragraphs and sometimes just one-liners of gratefulness from movie stars etc. and by reading one in the morning and at night it expands my gratefulness personally.

It's always a good day to be alive and grateful!

I saw the author Brenda Knight talk at a bookstore the other night and I was moved and motivated by her story of how gratitude turned her life around. We all need to get in touch with our humanity and share more with each other. This book of blessings is a blessing in and of itself. I will turn to it again and again when I need to get back in touch with my "attitude of gratitude."
