Gratefulness is thankfulness; it is recognizing your
blessings: the rising Sun, the flowing rivers, the abundant greenery dotted by
lavender plants; all of these are a few blessings; notwithstanding the peeking
moon behind the clouds (the bride that seldom shows her full-face!)
There is abundance everywhere; within you. So, how to be
grateful?
1.
Become a
diarist: Become a diarist for the sake of gratefulness. You can make it
weekly, monthly or annually. Write about something you are grateful for. If you
are grateful for flowers, write about their abundance, fragrance and hues; post
some pictures online!
2.
Wrap a
present: Are you very grateful to spouse? Are you grateful for the things
he does for you? Make a present for them and wrap it even more beautifully,
rather adorn it.
3.
Write a story: Do you love writing stories
or telling them? Concoct a story for that person or with that person in it! A
story can make them immortal!
4.
Send them
a happy playlist: YouTube has made it extremely easy to share your
playlists.
5.
Write a
song: This one is my favorite: either write or sing a song for someone you
love; they will love your thoughtfulness.
Surprise
them, love them, respect them, show them.
Be grateful!
