Gratitude

“Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. (Thank you.)” — Marcel Proust

I was thinking today how little time we give to telling the people in our lives what they mean to us. We spend so much time talking about things that don’t matter and things that don’t have anything to do with us personally but how much affirming the ones we love for what they mean to us? Let’s think about our time as a resource that we budget and let’s decide today to re-allocate the time spent on ranting and gossip and insignificant topics and and direct it to those around us who give our life meaning and place of belonging.
