The Liberating Effects of Gratitude
Do you sometimes think that your life seems to be a constant whirl of activity where you don’t have time to sit for a minute and just contemplate the good things you already have?
The world today is such that most of us experience a constant rush from one activity to another with little or no time to be still, take stock, and appreciate the good things we have in our lives. You will find out that gratitude for the things we have, rather than an attitude of continuously grasping for what we lack, unleashes the power of optimism in our lives.
Gratitude is a powerful characteristic to develop. As we focus on gratitude for the blessings that are ours today, we stop taking them for granted. Cicero once wrote, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of all virtues, it is the parent of them.” The attitude of never having enough and never being grateful is such a negative attitude; others don’t want to be around it. Yet the opposite is true for the person who radiates gratitude. They usually find eevr more reasons to be grateful.
This attitude permeates every part of their life and is the drive that compels them to undertake the activities scheduled for the day. People who learn to be genuinely grateful for what they already have, creating a reduction in the need to be constantly seeking more. They feel genuine appreciation for the efforts and contributions of others and have energy left over to reach out and be appreciative for what they themselves already have.
We all know people like this. History has recorded many famous names of people who have learned this important life lesson. We can transform the way we approach our life by developing this characteristic. Writing down each day at least three things to be grateful for, is a great way to cultivate this attitude and taking time during the day to express our gratitude to friends, family, and God is a great way to learn to live in an attitude of gratitude even when we are faced with a hectic schedule.

When people embark on a journey of self-discovery, they usually focus on the physical and emotional side of their personality. Rarely do people consider the importance of spiritual self-discovery. When we take the time to explore the part of our psyche that we sometimes call spirit or soul, we discover a unique and different aspect to our personality we may not even have realized existed.
