A grateful heart is not always easy to maintain. We, in our fragile human experience, are often tested to the limits and often are brough to our knees with pain. But, by holding onto gratitude for the simplest of things, our hearts can remain open to love and the true joy in understanding God's grace. Jacke Madden Haugh's "e;A Grateful Heart is a Happy Heart"e; is a collection of short stories where she looks at life through the lens of gratitude to find happiness in the minutia of each day. For her, a life without joy is no life at all.
