Beautiful day to all Steemians. Hope we are all doing great? I would love to appreciate @goodybest for organizing this contest. Gratitude is one attribute we should have has human beings and i be detailedly talking about it in this contest.

$What Is gratitude in your own opinion?*

Gratitude is the act of showing appreciate for a good deed, favour or help from someone. Gratitude springs forth from a help rendered by someone. It a feeling of gratefulness when someone helps you solve a problem you have been trying to solve.

Why Does Gratitude Matter?

Gratitude matters alot as human beings. When someone renders you help and you show gratitude, that person will be willing to help you again if the need arises and can even refer you for opportunities because of your appreciation.

An ungrateful person will miss opportunities in life and might be limited. For a man to rise another man has to lift him and it you show ungratefulness even for the smallest things, who knows the big problem it can cause in one's life in the future.

It takes an humble person to show gratitude.A proud man will never appreciate someone, they always think they are better than others. There is a saying that goes "pride goes before a fall" Show me an humble man and i show you a man that will go far in life. We need to imbibe gratitude in our daily lives no matter how small the help or favour is.

How often do you show Gratitude? (give instances)

I show gratitude as often as i can to God and to men. There was a time in school when someone accommodated me because i had issues with my accommodation, she went out of her way to render help to me.

I appreciated her for her kindness and i got involved in the running of the house and the expenses. I did not leave it all to her but i took up some responsibility as a way of showing my gratitude although i appreciated her with words i went ahead to use my actions to show the sincerity of my appreciation.

How Can you Make Gratitude a Habit, And how do you inculcate it in young ones?

You can make gratitude an habit by constantly appreciating people. Say thank you for the smallest things. For instance when i enter a tricycle and when am about to come down i tell the driver thank you even though am paying him money because it is now a part of me.

You don't have to wait for mighty favours to say thank you. The little things people do for you always appreciate them for it and even when they are not able to help you thank them for at least giving you a listening ear. It will go a long way to build your character.

You inculcate the habit of showing gratitude in the young ones by always reminding them to say thank you for everything and anything. When you begin it might take a while but when they get it, it's becomes part of their lives and they grow up with such an amazing character attribute.

Yes @divinelife. Gratitude a very good quality we humans need to have. Always showing gratitude, attract love and favour from people.
And yes, it's always good to show gratitude for the smallest things that seems not to matter. Showing how grateful you were to your friend with words and action was really nice. Nice post you've put together @divinelife, i enjoyed reading . Thumbs up!

Hello @divinelife, I love your way of perceiving gratitude, no matter the size of what we have received, it can seem insignificant and still, we should be grateful.

We can thank you with words, but if there is the possibility we can also demonstrate it with actions.

Greetings.
