Everyday it's important to find moments to be grateful. While I don't sit down and write in a gratitude journal as some people may, none the less, I think about what I'm truly grateful for on a daily basis. I recently purchased a book of inspirational thoughts and this quote caught my attention; 'as we express our gratitude we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them' (John Fitzgerald Kennedy).
Perhaps it's simplier to talk about things whereas the true gift is in being able to live that which we are grateful for. It's what we demonstrate on a daily basis that really counts and is the evidence of our sense of gratefulness. I choose every single day for my life to be that way. Although at times it's difficult, it is none the less something to aspire to reach; a goal every present on my mind. Until next time...
