One of the main reasons that we lose our enthusiasm in life is because we become ungrateful..we let what was once a miracle become common to us. We get so accustomed to his goodness it becomes a routine..

About This Quote

Here we see the power of gratitude. The way we see our blessings and gifts is often determined by what we expect from them. If we expect nothing, we cannot be surprised when they don’t give us what we want or expect. When we are grateful, however, our expectations change.

We become open to receiving as much as possible from those around us. Gratitude makes us more grateful for what we already have and opens up our hearts to be filled with more love and wonder about life.
