GRATITUDE changes everything…
#Power of gratitude

The word gratitude is derived from the Latin word gratia, which means grace, graciousness, or gratefulness. Gratitude is a thankful appreciation for what an individual receives, whether tangible or intangible. With gratitude, people acknowledge the goodness in their lives. In the process, people usually recognize that the source of that goodness lies at least partially outside themselves. As a result, gratitude also helps people connect to something larger than themselves as individuals.
In our daily life most of the time we feel ungrateful for no reasons and we usually take most of things just for granted. So when we lose those certain things than we realize their importance in our lives.Not only things we do take people for granted too and in that way we ignore all those little acts of kindness and gratitude mostly. Because we are too busy in our lives and we only pay attention towards others when they don’t do anything for us and than we start complaining about their behavior and things get out of control.

So we should make gratitude an essential part of our lives. There are so many benefits of practicing gratitude for example first of all it shifts our focus from being ungrateful towards being grateful towards things we already have in our lives. Secondly it gives ultimate happiness, peace of mind and it strengthens our faith. Recently an other task was given to me regarding practicing gratitude in daily life.

What i did in context of practicing gratitude, i wrote a letter to my dearest friend, in that letter i told her that how grateful i am to have her in my life. I also encouraged her to be always the same as she is and i also mentioned that how she helped me in getting my dream job. I told her that she may have forgot everything because what she did for me back than was just because she is always a helper and supporter of her people.Along with that letter i gave her a painting which i made specially for her by putting all her favorite colors in that painting. Right now she is in peer mahal and i drop her parcel at courier today. I am quite sure she will be surprised to receive that gift because it is totally unexpected thing from side. It was just a little thing from side, i can never beat her in all the good things she is capable of. Right now i am feeling so relax and calm after doing this and waiting for her response :)

The experience of doing this was so great i never thought of doing such things but Amal gave me this opportunity to do at least something for the people who had played an important role in my life and i usually and unintentionally don’t give those people regard or credit of anything but from now this is never gonna happen. I will cherish and appreciate all the blessings i have in my life whether they are things, people or opportunities.
