if we choose not to have an attitude of gratitude, we can overlook mid-day grace. The pressure of family issues, work stress, and lack of cash flow burden us with wanting more. Yet, the state we find ourselves in causes us to be an emotional drain. The feeling of anxiety replaces the desire to be grateful. However, we no longer are thankful for what we do have. The sense of lack overrides the memory of yesterday’s blessings. On the other hand, we desperately need to define our mindset of appreciation.
Defining An Attitude of Gratitude

The debate among family members, peers, co-workers, and strangers is who is the reciprocal of grace. On the contrary, our mindset ponders over the benefits of having an attitude of gratitude.
