Be Thankful

At age 108, Holocaust survivor Alice Herz Sommer still practices piano for 3 hours every day.

At age 104, she had a book written about her life: "A Garden Of Eden In Hell."

At age 83, she had cancer. Alice survived the concentration camps through her music, her optimism and her gratitude for the small things that came her way - a smile, a kind word, the sun.

When asked about the secret of her longevity, Alice says: "I look where it is good."


Everything, however little in your life, is a present. The greatest secret of life is found in looking where it good. No matter what you're going through now, you will atleast find something that is working; be thankful.
