How to Express Gratitude - Andrew Bushard
Introduction
How do we express gratitude? I find express
an interesting word, because it can denote either speaking or action. Many times people try to express gratitude just by speaking.
James C. Hunter observed, Love is a verb.
So I also say, Appreciate is a verb.
Many people try to express gratitude by speaking, but their actions show otherwise. You demonstrate gratitude through your actions.
I often feel guilty because in some ways, I have more than other people. Sure, I’d like to think I did something to earn what I have, though we don’t earn everything we have. Sometimes God or luck or fate just blesses us.
Some say we earn everything in life and others say privilege
dictates everything. Both groups communicate half-truths. You delude yourself if you think everyone has the same obstacles, challenges, and abilities, yet, on the other hand, you delude yourself if you think everyone has the same character, diligence, and wisdom.
Sometimes, people have something because they earned it; other times, people have something even though they did not earn it. It takes wisdom to determine who earned what and who didn't earn what.
No one can have it all
. Life doesn’t work that way. Some people have money and fame, but no time or privacy, like celebrities tell us. Other people have plenty of time and privacy, but no money or fame. Whatever your lot in life, you possess some resources.
We express gratitude by how we use the resources we do have. The book Necessary Endings contrasts the Wise
, the Foolish
, and the Evil
, by suggesting wise people transform every resource into something better whereas foolish people squander resources. We can say evil people use their resources to destroy others.
Many would praise someone who utters, I’m happy with what I got.
But fools make such statements. Foolishly content people don’t take advantage of their resources and instead maintain the status quo. Wise people aren’t content as they transform their resources into something better, and the degree of
