in the holy Quran بَدِيعُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۖ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ صَاحِبَةٌ ۖ وَخَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ ۖ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: How can He have a son when He hath no consort? He created all things, and He hath full knowledge of all things. ذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ رَبُّكُمْ ۖ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ خَالِقُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ۚ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَكِيلٌ ( That is Allah, your Lord; there is no deity except Him, the Creator of all things, so worship Him. And He is Disposer of all things. لَّا تُدْرِكُهُ الْأَبْصَارُ وَهُوَ يُدْرِكُ الْأَبْصَارَ ۖ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ No vision can grasp Him, but His grasp is over all vision: He is above all comprehension, yet is acquainted with all things. مَا الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ وَأُمُّهُ صِدِّيقَةٌ ۖ كَانَا يَأْكُلَانِ الطَّعَامَ ۗ انْظُرْ كَيْفَ نُبَيِّنُ لَهُمُ الْآيَاتِ ثُمَّ انْظُرْ أَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ The Messiah, son of Mary, was only a Messenger, all the Messengers have (like him) passed away before him, his mother was a highly truthful woman. They both used to eat food. See how We explain the arguments for their good, yet see, how they are turned away (from the truth). لَقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۖ وَقَالَ الْمَسِيحُ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُ مَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَاهُ النَّارُ ۖ وَمَا لِلظَّالِمِينَ مِنْ أَنْصَارٍ Indeed, the truth deny they who say, "Behold, God is the Christ, son of Mary" - seeing that the Christ [himself] said, "O children of Israel! Worship God [alone], who is my Sustainer as well as your Sustainer." Behold, whoever ascribes divinity to any being beside God, unto him will God deny paradise, and his goal shall be the fire: and such evildoers will have none to succour them!

[@barlen44]

“Oh my God” beautifully defined: “When people see my images, a lot of times they’ll say, ‘Oh my God!’ Have you ever wondered what that meant? The ‘Oh’ means it caught your attention; it makes you present; it makes you mindful. The ‘my’ means it connects with something deep inside your soul; it creates a gateway for your inner voice to rise up and be heard. And ‘God’? God is that personal journey we all want to be on, to be inspired, to feel like we’re connected to a universe that celebrates life.”

I clicked on this video hoping to get into the mood of gratefulness before I slept. By the end of the video, I was crying profusely and smiling from ear to ear every time I saw one of the people on the screen smiling. Its like I had no control over my facial muscles anymore. I could literally feel the gratitude exploding out of me. I cannot even begin to express how grateful I am for this video. Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Such an inspirational video. If it does not stir your heart and soul - you need to check your pulse!! We have an awesome God who loves us so much He created all this beauty and majesty for us to enjoy!! Thanks!

[@walterwa256]

I totally agree

[@RoseTrefz]

Very powerful clip. Thank you! We must never lose sight of the beauty and goodness that surrounds us. Though there is negativity and violence around the world, there is much more good. What we focus on expands. We need more people to be focused on peace, compassion, abundance, beauty, gratitude, unity, respect for our awesome diversity and hope. We are energetic beings. When we are focused on good things, we are generating positive energy into the world and that is what the world needs more than ever!

[@annabelleprisbrey3534]

As well to be grateful to the Creator for blessing our lives with things that "please the eye and gladden the heart." Sending love to everyone with all living things in mind. Very grateful for the man who created this amazing video. There is STILL MUCH IN THIS WORLD TO BE GRATEFUL FOR!❤️

Glorious in it's ability to open the sacred heart, utter the reverent OMG, "the gateway for our inner voice to rise up and be heard - our connection to the Divine. To be part of a universe pulsating only vital life who moment by moment asks us to celebrate and thrill in the beauty, the graciousness, the miracle. Thank you Louie!

[@smokejc]

+Divine Consciousness the fuck

[@Liberatingdivineconsciousness]

+smokejc perhaps you can share your dismay in more polite terms?

[@smokejc]

+Divine Consciousness You're just trying too hard.

[@TheNikolinho]

+Divine Consciousness What a load of New age stuff. There is "really nothing new under the sun", as wise Solomon said. Same old human philosophies, repacked and sold with name name. There are so many wrong things and lies hiding in your text. I'm not accusing you, lady, i'm against the deceit, the doctrines of the dark. There is no sacred heart, God is not within us all because if He were you would be praising His Son and our Savior and Mediator, Christ Jesus, not empty vacuum and space dust, which are by the way running out of gas, and dying. Both scientists and the Scriptures are agreeing that the universe will come to the end. This temporary creation is subject to decay and it's passing away. Only those who are born in the Spirit of Christ, repented and transformed for His glory, will inherit what's permanent, what's of true spiritual reality. Anything else, including false philosophies, New age, empty talks, false religions, etc. will disappear, and those who practice those things, like they never existed. So my invitation, as one who once was lost, is: by ALL means investigate who Christ is, what He did for you, WHY He came on earth, and WHAT message and hope is that sending to you. There is no more important goal and question in life, and eternity, to find out who Jesus is and why is He important to us. May God open our eyes, soften our hearts, and helps us to find Him. Amin. God bless

A daily practice of gratitude increases your sense of deserving.

[@Goldfinch593]

I have been enjoying this video since it was first published here on KZbin in June 2011, ten years ago! Happy anniversary! I have shared it often with family and friends. And today, feeling especially grateful for the things in my life, I shared it again on my Facebook page. As a photographer, I am in awe of your amazing time-lapse photography and love how you created this video, combining it with the words of an innocent young girl and the wise words of the Benedictine monk. And the music is just perfect. Thank you for sharing your deep connection with the beauty of our Natural world. This video truly is a gift.

[@SkyPixles]

Everything of God gets expressed in him, so you can see and hear him clearly. You don’t need a telescope, a microscope, or a horoscope to realize the fullness of Christ, and the emptiness of the universe without him. When you come to him, that fullness comes together for you, too. His power extends over everything. - Col 2v9 The Message Bible

[@SkyPixles]

lol

[@TrevorCokley]

Riaan Skypixels It's okay Riaan, what you choose to believe defines you as a human being. Even though I don't peruse a spiritual guidance as you do, I'm glad you follow that path. It makes everything interesting and different. Who am I to judge your choices. I just thought I should say that, good or bad, everyone makes their choices. I'm glad you are what you are. I say that positively.

[@SkyPixles]

Thanks Trevor, you message is well taken ;-). Its unfortunate that we live in a post modern world where there said to be no absolutes. And the paradox is that that is a absolute statement. Your "truth" my "truth" we all have a set path sounds nice. But there is only one path to God the Father and that is through Jesus No other. It's also true that people would have no problem saying all the beauty comes from some superior alien race, rather than a loving God who sent his Son! The problem lies in fact, that God is not just loving but Holy! Thus if we admit that, we make ourselves accountable to a Holy God, and our sinful hearts does not like that idea, so we come up with our own "path" & "own" truth stuff. Also said positively and respectfully to you! Warm regards!

[@afsanerf250]

You think this is just another day in your life. It's not just another day, it's the one day that is given to you today! It's given to you .. It's a gift ! It's the only gift you have that right Now!

[@reginat.758]

Gratitude is a feeling that lifts up our level of energy so that we could also be a blessing for others. And there is an incredible amount of things we could be grateful for... to start we just need to remember all those things we often take for granted... Grateful for this talk.

[@zabelicious]

I see and appreciate the beauty of nature on a daily basis and find it very comforting. However, the people I see all day long seem to be struggling and suffering one way or another. Guess the "good" must be balanced with the "bad", I am thankful for what my senses allow me to perceive.

[@KayronHuff]

I have seen much beauty in my life, but to see it through Mr. Schwartzberg's camera and to hear the words of inspiration through this video has opened my heart and soul to a new meaning of "Oh, my God!".

[@allyfinn6676]

I am sitting here in tears as I finish watching it. If the world looked at the world this way... what a wonderful world it would be. If you can't watch the entire 10 min video at least pick it up at 3:27 and watch the Project Happiness video. SOO GOOD!

It starts with one person and spreads like a wild fire. Lets start this gratitude fire

I am so full of Gratitude for this beautiful message and wonderful things to see. Thanks for all the Beauty you share...and I Thank my God for all the beauty all around us.

[@curiousgeorge555]

I love the beach at Elk. I spent an entire day there alone praying and meditating. I found three incredibly beautiful abalone shells. I still have two of them. I gave the other away to a friend. I have never seen such beautiful abalone shells as these three... I am grateful for that day. The pleasure of the day was greatly amplified by giving thanks with gratitude to the creator of all the beauty that surrounded me.

[@angelaolivier6584]

I am a very visually oriented person. I see a lot of things that others don't, I find beauty in things that others only see as ugly.I am an artist, and work with many different mediums. I especially love working with colours. When I see a colour, I see the colours that make that colour. For example, when seeing green, I see the base,which is blue and from there I see what percentage of yellow was used to make that shade of green. Then can tell how much white or black was used if any, to determine how light or dark the colour may be. This is not something that was taught to me. In fact, I've never taken an art class in my life. And I have never limited myself to just one medium. I will see a medium and/or what someone could do with it, and if it intrigues me, I will just start doing it. Of course the longer you practice something, the better you get at it. Photography is one of my favorite.... Instant gratification these days. And the sky is one of my fav subjects, and night time is awesome ie, the moon.🌝

[@musicalturtle1]

Love this, this is how I am with music. It's a blessing and a curse--when I hear a song, my brain immediately starts decoding all the different harmonies and breaking them up into their individual parts. I hear a song once and it's almost if not completely memorized. Like you, this hasn't been taught to me; I started teaching myself piano shortly after I learned to speak. I was a two-year-old with a million songs bouncing around in my head, and I had to figure out a way to get them out. I couldn't read sheet music until I was about ten because I didn't need it--I could just sit down and play whatever song was in my mind. Even after learning all the theory and going through classical training, I still rely heavily on my ear once I have a new song memorized. I've started composing, too! Isn't it lovely to have these gifts? :)

[@vanajashankar]

[@RobinPierceWildMoonSister]

Truly wonderful content here, I highly recommend it, and its not at all about picking your nose, she is just scratching. *The HARD PART is getting your mind quiet enough to watch this, listen to this fully, without your brain distracting you by every other little thought of what you have to accomplish today. Breathe and allow yourself to really absorb THIS.*

[@philippedefossez3421]

"Do you think this is just another day in your life? It's not just another day.; it's the one day that is given to you today. It's given to you. It's a gift. It's the only gift that you have right now, and the obnly appropriate response is gratefulness. If you do nothing else but to cultivate that response to the great gift that this unique day is, if you learn to respond as if it were the first day in your life, and the very last day, then you will have spent this day very well. Begin by opening your eyes and be surprised that you have eyes you can open.. that incredible array of colors that is constantly offered to us for pure enjoyment. Look at the sky. We so rarely look at the sky. We so rarely note how different it is from moment to moment, with clouds coming and going. We just think of the weather, and even of the weather, we don't think of all the many nuances of weather. We just think of 'good weather' and 'bad weather'. This day, right now, has unique weather, maybe a kind of weather that will never exactly in that form come again. The formation of clouds in the sky will never the same that it is right now. Open you eyes. Look at that. Look at the faces of people whom you meet. Each one has an incredible story behind their face, a story that you could never fully fathom; not only their own story, but the story of their ancestors. We all go back so far. And in this present moment, on this day, all the people you meet, all that life from generations and from so many places all over the world, flows together and meets you here like a life-giving water, if you only open your heart and drink. Open your heart to the incredible gifts that civilization gives to us. You flip a switch and there is electric light. You tunr a faucet, and there is warm water and cold water, and drinkable water. It's a gift that millions and millions in the world will never experience. So these are just a few of an enormous number of gifts to which we can open our heart. And so I wish that you would open your heart to all these blessings and let them flow through you, that everyone whom you will meet on this day will be blessed by you; just by your eyes, by your smile, by your touch.. just by your presence. Let the gratefulness overflow into blessing all around you. Then it will really be a good day." - "Gratitude", by Benedictine monk Brother David Steindl-Rast.

Gratitude for Celestials in my Family, providing health, open hearts, and good dreams, and assisting in any way possible, especially by putting us in contact with eachother physically and through dreams and presences, transcending our shyness & helping us to commune with nature in a good way, and to meditate and have mystical experiences. Gratitude for quality Celestials rather than quantity. Gratitude for the Diety

Muslims pray 5 times a day, they do SUJUD and RUKU each time to the only creator who gives us all these blessings. they say ALHAMDULELLAH (praising god) at least 32 times in 24 hours, some of them say it 100s of times. a lot of people say things against muslims that they learned from media, but we should focus on the real islam, not what terrorists do in the name of islam. i love the powerful words from Brother David, gave me a great feeling :)

This video allows you to SEE the most AMAZE-ing aspects of our planetary existance that are otherwise beyond everyday life. That we, as a species, have created the technology to be able to capture these images is also AMAZE-ing.

I am grateful for V8's Healthy Greens vegetable juice, convenient way to get some vegetables in my system. I am more than optimistic about the freshness and vitality of the ingredients. I am grateful that none of the products offered by V8 are made with genetically modified ingredients, it means a lot to our bodies and to the integrity of the ecosystems of the earth. Thank you so much, V8 for offering unique forms of cuisine involving classic veggies. It means the most to our physical bodies absorbing those nutrients!

That was TRULY a gift. Thank you. "We protect what we fall in love with." That one sentence changed tbe lense through which I view ... everything.
