Virtues are those concepts of life that we appreciate and hold in high esteem. They are the path to living a wholehearted life full of integrity, connection, and peace. Gratitude is one of the greatest of all virtues.
Showing gratitude has been proven to alter the brain’s chemistry, creating more happiness hormones; serotonin and dopamine. Let’s see what it means to be grateful and how practicing gratitude can influence your life positively.
When we express gratitude, we appreciate all of the good in our lives and the world around us. It is also a state of consciousness where we focus on the present. Gratitude is a focus on what is instead of what isn’t. It’s choosing to think about what we have versus what we lack. The practice of gratitude is showing faith in the goodness of the world.
Every religious practice and spiritual belief system incorporates the virtue of gratitude in aligning with a higher power. Living a virtuous life leads us to a place of glory. Expressing gratitude for everything in your life that God has provided aligns with the feeling of love and appreciation for life. When we recognize the love and goodness in our lives we are naturally drawn to more beauty, love, and light.
Gratitude has been called the mother of all virtues. I believe it’s phrased like that to express how all virtues are made better by being thankful. Happiness, trust, respect, justice, and safety, to name a few, all align with the belief that there is still some goodness in the world. Showing gratitude affirms that goodness exists and can be found all around us.
Deepening your experience of gratitude can be attained through a regular practice of mindfully interacting with your environment through your five senses. Appreciating little things like the smell and taste of our food, for example, allows us a great experience of gratitude for the meal. Slowing down and recognizing why we appreciate things in our lives can deepen our connection to God and the people in our lives.
I hope you choose to connect to the goodness around you and practice being grateful every day.
