It's common for people to be happy and show gratitude only when it comes to material things. They are so blinded and overclouded with ephemeral things that they look down on the things that cannot be bought with money. Too Often, people attach their happiness to the amount of money they have, the number of cars they can boost of and expensive clothing they can acquire, forgetting the most essential and indispensable things that actually keeps one happy and going in his day to day life.

BE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR FREEDOM

Even our heros past knew the value of freedom and fought effortlessly to get it back, for themselves and unborn generations..

When you have freedom of movement, you are indeed very rich and privileged. So many in the prisons desire to be freed. Even when it seems they have been given the least opportunity to move around, they are still followed, watched and sometimes, chained. When they are back to the cell, they are locked up again for only God knows when they can get to see the light again.

They cannot make decisions of what they want to do with their lives anymore because it is fully controlled by the law. Some do not even know their fate and some who have been given a life sentence have lost their freedom forever. But you have it in a platter, you don't have anyone following, controlling or commanding your life about, be grateful.

SHOW APPRECIATION FOR THE GIFT OF GOOD HEALTH

Health is wealth. One who is in good health can work to earn a living and will not be a liability to others.

We might never appreciate the good health we have until we are down with an illness which might be life threatening. One who is in good health should show gratitude because, it cannot be bought with money. So many have the money to get treatment but unfortunately, their money cannot save them. Some end up dying even with all the wealth and medical experts they have at their beck and call. You should be grateful that you do not need a tube to be passed across your throat to eat or defecate, you should be grateful for good health.

SAY THANK YOU FOR PEACE OF MIND

You look younger and stronger each day that passes by. Even though we are accountable for our peace, we should not also forget that it cannot be bought with money.

Finally, Inasmuch everyone wishes for comfort, we should not forget to show gratitude and say thank you for these indispensable things we get for free from God. we should not ignore the true fact that these are really what makes our existence worthwhile on Earth.
