A Word from Beyond
The English word “gratitude” comes from the Greek word “gratus,” which means “thankful and pleasing.” It also has the root of the word “grace.”
In essence, gratitude is based on the state of your spirit. To find gratefulness in every moment of life is like seeing the shining light that beams through the cracks of rocks. One can find serenity within and be in harmony with what life has bestowed naturally upon one’s existence through the gateway of honest thankfulness.
Humility is at the heart of sincere gratitude.

What can I learn from this moment?
What can I be grateful for from this experience?
What is that one thing in my life that I take for granted that I can turn into and express gratitude for?
