Appreciation is the act of showing gratitude for what has been done for someone. Literally, to appreciate simply means to be thankful or grateful for something.
As human being, we should cultivate the habit of appreciation. We should be thankful for any little help rendered to us, firstly we should appreciate God for the gift of life each day we wake up in the morning.
Learn to appreciate nature, appreciate time, appreciate families, appreciate friends, above all learn to appreciate opportunities.
One evening my mother made dinner after a hard day's work. She put a plate of eggs, salad and burnt toast in front of my father...
I immediately noticed, the burnt toast.... And, I was waiting to see if he was going to complain about it, but my father started to eat them, smiling and asked me how I spent my day at school...
My mom apologized to my dad for the burnt toast. I will never forget his response to her: "Honey, I love burnt toast!"
Later when I went to bed and my dad came over to kiss me goodnight, I asked him if he really liked the burnt toast?
He hugged me and said, "Your mother has had a difficult day and she is really tired. She went out of her way to prepare this meal for us, why blame her and hurt her.
Burnt toast never hurt anyone; but words can be very painful!"
We have to know how to appreciate what others do for us, even if it's not perfect, because it's the intention to do well that counts, and no one is perfect...
There is a saying that, when you appreciate for what is done for you then you will receive more. Above all learn to appreciate yourself and try to know that appreciation goes a long way, the word "thank you" should be part of you.
