learn to be grateful

"Grateful heart, thank you for your life, let me have the courage to be myself..." This is the lyrics in the song "Grateful Heart". I have a soft spot for this song, not because its melody is good, but because its lyrics touched me.

I remember that when we were in the fifth grade of the National Primary School, we had a Thanksgiving report on the Pearl Square. At that time, the pleasant words of the lecturer at the meeting attracted a piece of tears from the classmates. Even me and I were infected by this tearful sea. The tears rolled in the eyes, and there was a feeling of incomprehension in my heart. At the end of the report, the lecturer will let the students who have some insights about this report go to the stage and give them a chance to tell their words. At this point, I realized that the opportunity to test myself was here, but my feet were filled with lead and I couldn’t move. I didn’t realize the meaning of gratitude.

The second Thanksgiving report will be held in our school. Unlike the first time, my mother is sitting next to me and listening to the report. At the end of the report, the lecturer still let the students who learned to be grateful at this conference stand on the stage. In the process of the students walking on the podium, the song "Grateful Heart" is played in the sound. How melodious the song is, how beautiful the melody can touch the heart. The classmates walked up the stage one by one, and I took the steps with ease and stood in the middle of the crowd. In the crack of the crowd, I saw the smiling face of my mother. My heart was suddenly supported by a powerful force. Up, warm and dry. I know that I have overcome myself and I have a heart that knows how to be grateful.

A celebrity said that "the sheep have the grace of breastfeeding, and the crow has the righteousness to feed back." It is so good that the lamb sucks the breast of the ewes in order to thank the mother for her love for it; the crow knows how to grow up. Time to support the elderly parents. Even animals know that they must learn to be grateful, then we should learn to drink water.

To learn to be grateful is to learn to respect others. In fact, gratitude is very close to us. Sometimes it can be a bit of a word from the heart; sometimes it can be a subtle movement; sometimes it can be a state of mind... as long as we can find it, it is everywhere.

Every day has a heart of gratitude, then our life will become very fulfilling and happy! Let us be together and use the invisible rope of “gratefulness” to bring people closer together.
