The power of gratitude

Gratitude and patience have an amazing power that can help you achieve happiness when practiced. I have learned to be grateful for everything and that is key to being happy. I have learned to accept everything that has happened in my life, bad or good, and I have taken responsibility for everything that has happened in my life, good or bad. When something bad happens I am grateful for it, I take something positive from it, even the little things like someone yelling at me. And this is not always easy, but if you don't realize this it gives others power over your happiness. I have a friend who gets mad over every little thing that happens, he is constantly angry. If he understood that everything that happens is something to be grateful for, and be positive about it, then he would not be angry all the time. He would enjoy life so much more! Be grateful for the little things, good and bad. Take the good out of a negative situation and watch it change your life.
