Dear Gratitude's person,



Greetings,



It is very easy to pronounce the positive and negative but it is very heard to pass the Gratitude by heart.



Any how we can try to develop the same by remembering Mother Nature.



How to develop Gratitude?

If we look around the world, we will realize that the design of nature is so perfect.
Everything functions meticulously in our favour and yet, we complain when we lack minor things. This craving for what we do not have is ingratitude.

Think about the number of years we have been arrogating various provisions. If we were to pay for these provisions, it would add upto several digits.

The law of gravity is maintained perfectly. The Ozone layer in the ionosphere is designed to prevent ultraviolet rays. Oxygen is heavier than all other gases so it remains on the ground for us to breathe, and all other poisonous gases rise into the atmosphere.
Who is responsible for this? There seems to be an unseen benefactor.

We need to be grateful to the unseen
provider!

Further, imagine if we were to set up a family on the moon, do we realize the number of things we would have to take care of like water, the atmospheric condition, and millions of other designs of nature provided in our earth?

We take many things for granted because they are already taken care of, and yet, we are ungrateful for all the provisions.

If we examine our life within our self, we find so many things that can go wrong, but they are maintained ingeniously. Therefore, when our mind desires something that we do not have,
Count the blessings and focus on those things that we already have.

We have to be aware of our provisions and our provider. Thereafter, we develop an attitude of gratitude. Devotion to GOD is essence in this attitude of gratitude.

Marcus Aurelius recommended the technique
to “Think of what you have rather than what you lack. Of the things you have, select the best and then reflect how eagerly you would have sought them, if you did not have them”
Always learn to enjoy the Mother Nature/Ultimate/GOD Gifted short life, before we realize that it is too late!
