Attitude of Gratitude: Thank It Forward
We are all unique, and if we focus on what we enjoy and what brings us happiness, these things will multiply. Seeking the positives in every situation and showing gratitude more often will help us feel better and become happier.
Family Discussion Questions:
- What is it about giving and paying it forward that does as much for the giver as the receiver?
- Is it possible to give with no thought of receiving?
- Have you ever been the recipient of a random act of kindness or perhaps done a random act of kindness yourself?
