Growing up I wasn’t taught the value of gratitude so when I got older and there wasn’t anyone around to say “what do you say?”, I just didn’t say anything. Until I was in a relationship with someone who demanded that I say thank you. And I felt attacked. Like “what do you want from me? Isn’t my presence enough for you to know I’m appreciative?”. I haven’t perfected it but I make the extra effort to express my gratitude and I realized how much more willing people are when you tell them you appreciate what they said or did. It makes you feel good too. You appreciate this even more when you come across extremely unfeeling cave people. #gratitude #appreciation #givetanks #thankyou #acknowledgement #morningmedz #imsorryisastoryforotherdays (at Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx2FGuiBgBj/?igshid=1qn6xx1tcvy1i
