Gratitude is not simply a state of mind
Gratitude is not simply a state of mind, but rather a state of being. Appreciating someone but restraining yourself from openly expressing it, verbally or otherwise, is of no use to them, and only sows the seeds of selfishness in your own heart. True appreciation would result in a willingness to acknowledge the impact that someone elseโs efforts or contribution has on your life. Anything lessย cannot be appreciation. If we are willing to consume, then we must also be willing to contribute as well. Otherwise we introduce an imbalance in our lives that can never lead to healthy relationships. Donโt let your fear of allowing significant others into your personal space result in the destruction of beauty in your life.
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
