When times are difficult it can be hard to remember to be grateful. That's unfortunate because that is probably when you need it the most.
When you are grateful you cannot be sad or depressed. When you are grateful all you can feel is happy.
The benefits of being grateful are:
- cure broken or difficult relationships
- cure lack of health
- bring more money into your life
- reduce fear
- reduce worry
- reduce grief
- eliminate depression
- find solutions to problems
- find happiness
- with clarity
- have patience
- with kindness
- have compassion
- with your understanding
- bring peace of mind
