• A grateful heart, then, comes through expressing gratitude to our Heavenly Father for His blessings and to those around us for all that they bring into our lives. This requires conscious effort-at least until we have truly learned and cultivated an attitude of gratitude.

Someone has said that "feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it."

  Thomas S. Monson
