• In the middle of all this, as Sean slips out of his jacket, he looks over his shoulder at me and he smiles at me, just a glancing, faint thing before he turns back to Tommy. I'm quite happy for that smile, because Dad told me once you should be grateful for the gifts that are the rarest.

• Gratitude goes beyond the 'mine' and 'thine' and claims the truth that all of life is a pure gift. In the past I always thought of gratitude as a spontaneous response to the awareness of gifts received, but now I realize that gratitude can also be lived as a discipline. The discipline of gratitude is the explicit effort to acknowledge that all I am and have is given to me as a gift of love, a gift to be celebrated with joy.

• The question is grateful to who?  You would think grateful to Allah, but Allah didn’t mention Himself.  So it could be grateful to Allah, grateful to your parents, grateful to your teachers, grateful for your health, grateful to friends.  Grateful to anyone who’s done anything for you.  Grateful to your employer for giving you a job.  Appreciative.  Grateful is not just an act of saying Alhamdulilah.  Grateful is an attitude, it’s a lifestyle, it’s a way of thinking. You’re constantly grateful.
