Have you used one to say &amp;rsquo;thank you?&amp;rdquo; (William Arthur Ward)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;img loading="lazy" src="https://jeanjankisamaroo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/paintings-ronald-janki-33-1024x617.jpg"&gt;My own experience of being grateful in life has taught me that the more grateful I am, the more good comes to me.   I&amp;rsquo;ve noticed that people who do nice things for others are often genuinely caring and kind people whose hearts are in the right place.  They are not seeking anything for themselves.  Their own joy comes from making others happy and promoting their well-being. This is certainly the case with my brother.   &lt;strong&gt;&amp;ldquo;At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.&amp;rdquo; (Albert Schweitzer)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
