ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL OR THANKFUL March 8, 2021 (Tuesday @12:15 PM) Gratitude or being thankful is not only the greatest of all virtues, but the parent of all others. - by Cicero, Roman Philosopher GOODNESS OF ONE’S HEART Being thankful is a manifestation that a person is appreciative of the many blessings he or she has received. Like the generous man, it is a gift given out of the goodness of one’s heart. To give a gift to others though, does not mean that the giver should expect something in return. The true happiness that one feels in thanking will inspire him or her to be just selfless in being kind to other people. Being grateful is not an innate trait, but a learned skill that benefits all. It can be easily added to your other good traits. WHY SHOULD WE SAY “THANK YOU”?
