Once we all begin to search for things to be grateful for, we will better appreciate the simple pleasures and all of life's great gifts that we may have previously taken for granted.

Today, start bringing gratitude to our experiences, instead of waiting for a positive experience in order to feel grateful; in this way, we’ll be on your way toward becoming the masters of gratitude.
