Grateful people are happier, less depressed, less stressed, and more satisfied with their lives. Grateful people also have higher levels of control of their environments, personal growth, purpose in life, and self acceptance. Grateful people have more positive ways of coping with the difficulties they experience in life.
The longest lasting effects are caused by the act of writing “gratitude journals” every day, coupled with reviewing what you are grateful for, at the beginning of each day.

GRATITUDE - June 3, 2012
I AM GRATEFUL FOR MY GOOD FORTUNE IN FINDING A FABULOUS PARTNER IN LIFE.
Sixteen plus years and still excellent. Just thinking (yet again) how great my life is and to whom I owe that to. Lise. If I would be still alive, I would most certainly be living in a cardboard box down by the river, if not for her steady guidance.
Nice home, own our cars, comfortable retirement pending, financially secure, beautiful daughter, she is also my in-house doctor to remind me daily (at a minimum) regarding my health directives (I bought her a white lab coat so she could also look the part), attorney on long-term retainer, as well as financial adviser, to guard and guide my nickles.
