Expressing Gratitude and saying thank you are not the same thing.
I can express my gratitude without saying thank you and I can say thank you without expressing any gratitude.
Even though I am taught to say thank you, I have to learn to express my gratitude.
A thank you is a statement of receipt.
Gratitude is the emotional state of being Accepting.
A thank you, that is a have to, is a toleration that expresses disdain not gratitude.
Learning to express gratitude is essential to my personal development.
Expressing gratitude for what I have puts more of what I have into my future.
I may say thank you for what I receive.
I express gratitude for what I have accepted.
When I express gratitude for my life, I recognise and accept the miracle that is my life.
My life always offers my Self the opportunity to express my gratitude.
