since we're still in tough economic times I decided I wanted to show some gratitude for the things I have in my life, like a roof over my head, a job, a great dog, a loving wife and the many other little things that I may take for granted.
I say this because i'm constantly surrounded by individuals who don't appreciate how lucky they are with the things they have. my boss gave out bonuses today and I thought he was fairly generous about it, especially when you consider how badly most businesses have suffered during the recession. my coworker essentially shrugged his shoulders and said, 'the bonuses could've been better.' this was tantamount to a slap in the face to me and for him to suggest my boss wasn't being generous made me think of a spoiled child. he should be grateful he still has a job imo.
anyway, what things are you grateful for? do you find yourself surrounded by people that are constantly negative when they shouldn't be?
