I agree with the importance of Gratitude.<br /><br />Sometimes, when I think of the problems we face today (economically, etc), I feel like a lot of our problems could have been avoided if we were feeling grateful rather that <em>entitled</em>.<br /><br />Of course, it is easy to slip into the proud/entitled mode, so, I feel that it is important to take time to be grateful - sometimes it requires deliberate action.<br /><br />I liked when Elder Eyring gave a talk a while ago - where he gave the example that he would daily write in his journal how he felt the Lord in his life. Taking such time to reflect does make us more grateful.<br /><br />anyways - thanks for the post. :)<br />-chococataniaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
