Grateful
Being grateful is about not taking anything for granted and it involves looking at your life both the good side and bad side and embracing it. It involves showing appreciation for what we have even though it is little because somewhere out there they don't have what we call little, what we regard as insufficient is what they consider as abundant or plentiful. `Make sure you check out my awesome sponsors` **Back to being grateful** When we awoke this morning, the first thought that sprang to mind was, "I'm late, let me shower and get to work." But we forget that it is by God's grace that we are able to wake up, not by our own strength or intelligence, or because we have a job or because it is usual. **BE GRATEFUL.** Most people moan about their current occupations, and they are well aware that there are people out there looking for work who would gladly accept lower pay; some people have the potential to work but are unable to do so due to health difficulties. **BE GRATEFUL** You go to work every day and return home safely every day, meeting your wife and children at home; you haven't been in an accident on your way home, and the least you can do is thank God. **BE GRATEFUL** You have enough food to eat each day yet you still moan; remember, there are those out there who are starving and have nothing to eat but are still alive and do not complain. **BE GRATEFUL** You're at home every night, sleeping comfortably with no interruptions; you're comfortable, but you're still complaining. Keep in mind that some countries are currently experiencing crises, and some people there have nowhere to sleep or rest. **BE GRATEFUL** If you were raised by both parents or by a single parent, consider yourself fortunate; not everyone has that option, and not everyone has seen the person who gave birth to them..... Some were even picked up at the verge of death, and some were sold out by their parents, but we were raised by our parents, and you still grumble about them, **BE GRATEFUL**. **BE GRATEFUL** for the family you have, people you can trust and who will stand by you through thick and thin. That is something that the majority of individuals do not have. I'm still perplexed as to why some people dislike their families; be grateful you have one and that you enjoy it. **BE GRATEFUL** for your friends. if you have wonderful friends who aid you in times of need, who help you through your best and darkest periods when you least expect it, express your love and respect for them. Be grateful; not everyone is fortunate enough to have such friends. It's fewer than 50 days till the end of the year, and if you're still alive and well, and haven't lost any of your loved ones since the beginning of the year, **BE GRATEFUL.** You've been on this platform for a while now and you're complaining that random rewarder isn't visiting you like everyone else and you actually know that there are some people on this platform that haven't been visited by rusty. **BE GRATEFUL** because random rewarder still visits you. Don't give up. We take little things for granted...... In our country here Oxygen is N4500(12 $) per hour in hospitals and N108,000(265$) per day... Imagine people are paying for oxygen that we breathe for free. This is another reason. **BE GRATEFUL** There are a lot of reasons for we to be grateful, I can continue with it but I'm sure you guys have a reason to be grateful. Thanks for reading ❤.

You wrote very beautifully, my dear friend, if we look at our lives carefully in every moment, it is a blessing that we should be grateful for, if we have a spirit of gratitude, we will be less bothered by small problems, because we know we still have many reasons to live and continue.
At any point we should be grateful even though it's little
Truth, many people are only complaining and forgot of how grateful they are. There are a lot of reasons to be grateful, specially now that we are still experiencing crisis. The whole day of our existence is a big thing to be grateful. Let's all be grateful to everything, to everyone who become part of our daily existence as they are always there to give us a helping hand.
You're right, our daily existence alone is enough to show gratitude
Always be grateful. The more you are grateful the more opportunity to come in your way. Good day and stay safe.
Thanks for the contribution, if you show gratitude towards the little you have more would surely come
Truly this made me cry.. mostly the last words… we must be grateful even though we don’t get what we need, how dare we see these things as little underrated miracles.. these are reasons to be grateful, it could have worse, we wouldn’t have had friends loved ones and even parents likewise what to eat… If only we could see what’s happening outside, we will know that we are enjoying grace seriously… lovely write up and I really can’t wait for Christmas 😊
Crises going on everywhere and we are not even affected that's enough to show gratitude sef. I can't wait for Christmas too 😂
Being grateful is really a good way of showing that you're appreciative.. no matter how small anything has been done for you, show gratitude
You're right if we are appreciative for the little that means we are ready for the big ones
How I see been grateful when things are not good at all is "my situation is not the worst neither is it the best" so I am grateful for where I am now and I know it will be better.
Yeah that's the spirit, everything will be better
In all things, we should be grateful
You are right 💯
You are becoming pastors these days with your words even from noisecash, I love this. We should always be grateful even for things that are yet to come to pass.
😂😂😂 I don change . Thanks for the contribution
Few months ago I had a little but serious sickness that made my system to repel food. A whole me! Foodie. I was hungry but no single appetite to eat. They'd serve me fried rice and Turkey but I'd still give them to my friends around and they're always joyful and making funny mockery about me. "He that doesn't play with food"🤣. Menh, when I recovered, my eyes opened unto God the more. I knw the pain I passed through for just few days of sickness and how my body reduced. God has been making life easy for us,,,we just need to be thankful always
Thank God you're better now. People are really going through a lot we won't know until we have a taste
