One lady who was in 50s asked, why should I be grateful to God? Why should I be grateful everyday. There are so many painful incidences in my life. There have been so many things which i did not get. I ad such a painful beginning in life (She was born in slums), then why should I be grateful. I have worked hard to reach where I am.
She was the vice president of a Multi National Corporation.
Yes, she worked hard and there was a painful beginning. But didn’t she get so many opportunities to reach where ever she was? Wasn’t she breathing and alive to be grateful? She was healthy and despite of starting at such a level in life, she was standing at such a high level. Whatever she focused upon, she got. Moreover, let’s pick up her point, why she should be grateful when there are so many things which she did not receive? Then has she stopped using many more things which she had received? If she was still living a live everyday full of blessings (For which she had thanked once) shouldn’t she be grateful? Isn’t she successfully growing everyday? Isn’t she asking to be a president and then her own company after that? Then why she should stop being grateful?
It’s not about her. It’s in all of us. We thank once and we complain multiple times. But we forget that everyday when we wake up, it means, we have already been blessed to do something more, to correct past things, to make a better future, to serve more , to be a part of this beautiful world more and more. Everything is given. There are challenges but there are blessings too. We have to see, what side of life we want to look at.
Everyday Universe is filling us up with more and more blessings. So lets simply be grateful and be happy..
