We internalize, not just what we do, but what we feel. — Dr. Brett
Having developed the habit of finding a problem in every idea, every new experience, every opportunity—the human heart develops the worst of all traits: the inability to be grateful. This fosters feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, and vulnerability in the face of positivity, sincerity, and grace.
Having made it a conscious and willful routine to pause and reflect on all the small and big advantages, gifts and wins — the human heart internalizes a deep sense of gratitude, a prevailing feeling of fulfillment, contentment, and inner tranquility.
Both these feelings stem from small, very tiny choices made daily—choices that grow, expand, and multiply until they become hard and dominant.
Meet an ungrateful person, and they may well shake your inner peace, make you doubt your heart’s purity, and influence a sense of inadequacy within you. It takes preparation and resolve to maintain one’s inner tranquility in such encounters.
Meet a grateful, sincere person, and you will feel a sense of freedom. For a time, you forget all your problems, your shortcomings, under their reassuring gaze. Your heart will expand. You will feel great indeed.
