> Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.


To thank is to give; to give thanks is to share, There is, in gratitude, a hand extended to the other in return for his help or gift, the recognition of others as a human being for recognition as a synonym of gratitude, there is only one step: that of the consciousness that we need each other to exist. It is the look of the other on me which comes to validate my existence, then to confirm my value. Without his "gratitude," I am nothing. Aristotle already said: "The man who is unable to live in community or who does not feel the need because he is self-sufficient, is not part of the city and therefore is a brute or a God . To be convinced of this, it suffices to plunge back into the feeling experienced when, after a service rendered, we received no sign of thanks. Ingratitude, this "tomb of good", is an intimate wound: as if, more than our gift or help, it was our whole person who was denied.
