More From Anthony Hecht

A prayerful life is the key to possessing gratitude. we often take for granted the people who most deserve our gratitude. let us not wait until it is too late for us to express our gratitude. feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. if i gratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues. to express gratitude is gracious and honorable, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live with gratitude ever in our hearts is to touch heaven.
Gratitude Heart Keys
Speed is the form of ecstasy the technical revolution has bestowed on man. as opposed to a motorcyclist, the runner is always present in his body, forever required to think about his blisters, his exhaustion; when he runs he feels his weight, his age, more conscious than ever of himself and of his time of life. this all changes when man delegates the faculty of speed to a machine: from then on, his own body is outside the process, and he gives over to a speed that is noncorporeal, nonmaterial, pure speed, speed itself, ecstasy speed.

Because gratitude is the key to happiness, anything that undermines gratitude must undermine happiness. and nothing undermines gratitude as much as expectations. there is an inverse relationship between expectations and gratitude: the more expectations you have, the less gratitude you will have.

Within a few decades, machine intelligence will surpass human intelligence, leading to the singularity -- technological change so rapid and profound it represents a rupture in the fabric of human history. the implications include the merger of biological and nonbiological intelligence, immortal software-based humans, and ultra-high levels of intelligence that expand outward in the universe at the speed of light.

Wit is artificial; humor is natural. wit is accidental; humor is inevitable. wit is born of conscious effort; humor, of the allotted ironies of fate. wit can be expressed only in language; humor can be developed sufficiently in situation.
Humor Fate Effort
Gratitude goes beyond the 'mine' and 'thine' and claims the truth that all of life is a pure gift. in the past i always thought of gratitude as a spontaneous response to the awareness of gifts received, but now i realize that gratitude can also be lived as a discipline. the discipline of gratitude is the explicit effort to acknowledge that all i am and have is given to me as a gift of love, a gift to be celebrated with joy.
