Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.

Gratitude is a recurring theme on this blog only because I think it’s one of the most important truths to cultivate if you want to follow The Law of Attraction’s precepts. As the above quote states, you can feel it, but unless you express your gratefulness how will anyone realize the way you feel?
Always acknowledge a kindness. Keeping it to yourself serves no one. Say thank you. Doing so will bring more kindness to you. I get more pleasure, in fact I’ve ALWAYS gotten more pleasure out of giving than receiving. Some of you who have known me for some time may debate this but I have a difficult time with receiving anything, be it a compliment or a physical gift. My difficulty stems from not knowing how to react when someone gives me something. It’s a challenge I’m working on and I THINK I’m getting better at it. Just being immersed in The Law of Attraction has helped me learn to express my own gratitude when someone does something unexpectedly nice for me. I still find myself in an awkward place, but I have noticed a bit of a change in my attitude.
Remember to express your gratefulness when something good arrives at your feet. Don’t keep it to yourself. Expressing it will let the giver, whether it is God, a friend or a complete stranger know how you feel.
Be Happy! Be Well! Be Positive!
