You can be grateful, you can be grateful, and you can be both at the same time.
However, not everyone understands the difference between the two and how these two go hand in hand. If you want to be grateful, you have to be grateful first. Fortunately, gratitude is easier compared to gratitude.
So, what is the difference between the two and how can you practice it in your daily life?
Thank you
What is thanksgiving? Gratitude is when you are aware of the things you have received. You take conscious actions to be grateful for what you have received.
Usually, thanksgiving is a knee-jerk reaction—our autonomous reaction. This happens in a moment and is associated with polite behavior to express your appreciation.
The thing is that the act of gratitude only lasts for a short period. For example, do you remember the person who held the door open for you and who you said thank you to? Most likely, no. Compared to gratitude, expressing thanks is easier and has also become a social norm that is applicable in general situations.
Grateful
Now, let’s talk about gratitude. Gratitude is the appreciation of the things we have received and the people and things that are currently in our lives. It is having a sense of gratitude that comes from within. Gratitude happens on a deeper level and can live there for a very long time.
Gratitude is the manifestation of commitment, love and devotion towards those who have value to you and in your life. It embodies shared experiences, understanding, and love.
Gratitude and thanksgiving go hand in hand
When it comes to gratitude and how it differs from gratitude is that gratitude starts from the mind. Carry with it a belief that you feel that appreciation./ When you are grateful for something, you don’t need words or any physical sign to express your gratitude, but instead, it comes from within and is followed by your actions in a way natural.
The thing is that it is impossible to feel grateful without gratitude. The two go hand in hand. Since thanksgiving is more like an automatic reaction with short-term effects, the feeling of gratitude only follows when we consciously do so; therefore, gratitude takes a lot of conscious work to have in our life. It is an ongoing practice that will change our lives significantly.
