Feeling and saying thank you Read more https://ift.tt/2tKIOV7 There are so many gifts we are given that are easily taken for granted. We are so caught up in the “what we need” that we forget just what it is that we have. The needs and the haves are different for each individual. Why one side is feasting while others down the road are starving - as much as we try to understand - we truly have no clue. We all feel some sense of gratitude about some parts of life. But it's the verbalizing of this gratitude which we let slip away. I am sure people will deny ever failing to express gratitude. Some people pray to their higher power with words written by others and read them quickly to get through the task. Think of it like a little kid when their guardian says, “Say thank you.” They put on an angry face and say in a deep and quick pace, “Thankyou.” “Thank yous” become a reflex reaction like a knee jerk. You are given something that is priceless and you say, “Thank you.” A sports player excels and points at the sky and says, “Thank you.” But when they fail do they express gratitude for at least being given the chance? #thankyou #gratitude #love #selfrespectInstagram
