When someone does something for us, that attitude, behavior, generates enormous satisfaction, very pleasant of course, this triggers the feeling of gratitude, because it positively values the favor or benefit obtained.
The word gratitude is a term that has a special presence in the field of religion, since in this context it turns out to be a frequent practice, which the believer, the faithful, thanks through a prayer, or an informal chat with his God for having granted any request, desire or directly for everything they have because they consider it to be the result of God's action, among others.
This generates for the faithful a tremendous commitment of gratitude to God, because he believes that everything he has in life is owed to him. Very believing people every time they sit at the table to eat and before trying to bite, they thank God for the food they can have on the table.
Gratitude means appreciating at all times what others do for us, being aware of their attitude and helping to create a commitment of trust and reciprocity with them.
Appreciation means being willing to respond with the same attitude when our help is required. When trust increases in the bond, it creates friendship, sharing emotions, difficulties, problems where mutual help flows.
Gratitude is a feeling experienced when supported in difficult circumstances, leading to reciprocation with an action of gratitude. It can be expressed with a simple oral statement of appreciation, a smile, a thank you for a particular situation, a concept note with expressions of appreciation for your support, a phone call, a gift, a handshake, a warm hug, a loving Kiss.
An optimistic person values positively the good things that happen to him and for that reason he says that he is grateful for life. He who does not value the good that happens to him in life is, therefore, ungrateful. It could be said that the ingrate does not know how to correctly interpret his personal situation. Therefore, if someone is the heir to a great fortune and can do whatever he wants at all times, it would be irrational if he did not have a feeling of gratitude.
