Gratitude is hard to be given when we are wrapped up in life’s trials. The key is to not get closed in on those moments. If we do, we stop seeing the beauty of what life has given us.
We may not be able to escape some of the toughest moments but we are able to make them different by doing what we can with what we have.
Take a child who does not have the items you own, a child who does not have the access to a life you live.
You know what they may be missing but you don’t know what you are missing from their perspective.
Perhaps they don’t own that iPad, the Xbox or even those Michael Kors boots.
You may not know it but they own more.
They own their happiness. They own their freedom. They own their destiny.
Don’t take for granted the gratitude of others.
