It’s
still Thursday but for us working in Middle East, it already felt like Friday.
Tomorrow, I will wake up early not for work but for my classes and I’ve never
been this excited. While thinking of the lessons I will pick up tomorrow and
deciphering the greatness of life, I had this question in my head. There are
many things, events, conditions, and people I could be thankful for but how do
I express gratitude? How to be thankful?
Expressing
gratitude can be done in many creative ways whether verbal, written, or through
gestures. The simplest form of gratitude would be by just saying THANK YOU. My
childhood has been molded with the habits of saying thank you to express
gratefulness.
Today,
expression of gratitude comes in many forms. Some write letters to extend to
the person how thankful the sender is. Some would do works of charity for in
show of gratitude. Gestures like shaking hands, kissing, hugging, and a simple
pat on the back are common forms of showing gratitude to a person.
As
for me, I am expressing my gratitude in almost all those ways but my favorite
is writing it down on a form of journal/blog/board. I enjoy writing my
experiences of being thankful in a platform where I could inspire people to
look into their lives and find anything that they could be thankful for. In
this way I just don’t express my gratefulness and attract happiness but also
encourages readers to look into their lives and find those pieces to be
thankful for.
Today,
I am thankful for my sumptuous lunch. I am grateful for my family and friends
for the continuous support and inspiration. I am thankful for my company for
giving me a job and a pay check to defray my expenses. I am thankful for the
chance to live another day and make this post.
What
are you thankful for?
