That's the name of a book I'm currently reading, by Ann Voskamp. It dares you "to live fully right where you are". Although only a quarter of the way through, I wholeheartedly agree with the quote found on the back cover:
"Ann Voskamp is truly one of the most gifted writers I have ever read. If you want a book that will challenge you and mess with you in the most beautiful of ways, this is it. And you won't just read it and put it away. You will return to this treasure for years to come." (Lysa Terkeurst)
"mess with you in the most beautiful of ways". I'm finding that to be true.
The writer has a blog. To be honest, I don't know where she finds the time, but I'm glad she does. Beautiful photography, wonderful entries, calming music. Check it out:

One Thousand Gifts truly is a treasure of a book. At least it is on my bookshelf.
