07/29/2024 by

However hard life proves to be, being grateful is an essential element to achieving personal happiness. So this post offers you 11 quotes about gratitude to make you think.

All too often we fret about all the things we lack. And then we fail to appreciate fully all the good things in our lives.

So what do you do when you’re feeling negative about your life experiences?

Well, you should stop for a second or two and contemplate all those things for which you really should be grateful.

It can be as simple as the cup of coffee you’re enjoying or the lunch you have planned with a friend later in the week. Maybe you’re off to play football or simply to sit in the park to watch the world go by.

If you think hard enough and you think positively enough, then eventually you’ll see that there are things for which you can be grateful. They don’t have to be big or significant. They just need to be something that brings you pleasure, if only for a moment.

However bad you think your life might be, if you look around the world you’ll see that in comparison to many others, you’re quite lucky.

Yes, of course, there’ll be people with a bigger slice of life’s cake than you’ve got but so what? Does it matter? It’s not the size of your house that matters, it’s how happy is the home in which you live.

If you want to be happy it starts with a positive frame of mind and that starts with being grateful for whatever it is you’ve got, however small it may be.

So go on, be grateful and be happy. And contemplate these 11 quotes about gratitude now.
