On cultivating the sense of gratitude Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November. However, it is not only a festival, but also a kind of attitude of life. Says Barara Fredrickson, a psychologist at the University of North Carolina, ”Gratitude has the potential to change everything from its ordinary state to being a gift.” It is obvious that the benefits of gratitude can’t be ignored. On the one hand, the people who focused on gratitude are fat-out happier. They see their lives in favorable terms. As a result, they have a higher quality of life. On the other hand, gratitude, when expressed to others, almost always comes back around. People who helped you and got your appreciation would be pleasant to assist you again because they felt valued. In addition, in the view of the society, the society would be more harmonious if the air among us is full of gratitude. However, how to cultivate the sense of gratitude? The easiest way to express your appreciation is to say ” thank you”. And it couldn’t be better if you write down your gratitude in a letter. They will be moved because of your sincerity. At the same moment, the more you help those who help you, the more they feel your appreciation. Let’s live in the world filled of love and gratitude to share the beauty of life.
