If there is anything that the festive season should teach us all it is to be both grateful and gracious. To be forever thankful for what we have in this life and not be selfish is to be truly grateful and to be thankful and polite for what we have and what we have given to us is to be truly gracious
I have learned a lot over the past few years about being grateful and gracious. I may not have a lot of expensive possessions, but what I have I am truly grateful for what the Lord has provided me with. Some of you will remember that in my previous post I spoke of being truly wealthy in in terms of the quality of relationships in my life
I have learned the most about graciousness from Susanna and Russell. Susanna truly is an angel π π who is the most generous giving soul I have ever met. She has given me so much, had a generosity of spirit that can’t be equalled. She has taught me to just politely accept whatever people want to give me. She models true graciousness and is my role model. Russell too would have to be the most gracious gentleman I have ever met, he shows that truly chivalrous gentlemen do still exist. He helps so many people and he too has a generosity of spirit that is powerful. Whenever I pay Russell an honest compliment he always just politely replies Thank you Kaye. He obviously has healthy self esteem and self worth. These two people are two of the most important people in my life and I love β€ to spend time with them, creating happy memories.
I ask my readers at this time to think of the people that are important to them, and to think of ways that we can all express gratefulness and graciousness. I know as I spend Christmas π time with my family I will enjoy giving and receiving both qualities in my life.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas by spreading the cheer I talk about in this post. β€.
I read your blog on the bus on my way down to Sunbury. It is another good one. Very appropriate for this time of year.
