The Impact of Gratitude in Your Life

There’s a famous saying: "Life is full of miracles and surprises."

Many of us have heard and experienced this. Whether it’s happiness or sadness, life throws different challenges at us each day. When happiness comes, we enjoy it and feel deserving, but when sadness strikes, we often blame fate, God, or others. But why not respond the same way to both?

Personally, I think many people feel lost in such moments, and that’s when gratitude plays a major role.

In my life, I have experienced the great impact gratitude has had on my mental and physical health. There was a time when I constantly questioned, “Why is this happening to me?” I wanted to escape those moments of misery, but gratitude helped me shift my mindset and heal.

A Phase of My Life

I was in a misery, depressed, and worst phase a year ago. Feeling lost because of not being able to do my job anymore, go out with friends, enjoy the things I love the most, not able to focus on anything, loss of appetite, and being on a knife edge in relations with loved ones. 

But, here I am again doing all of those things slowly by taking time. All that I used to tell myself at that time was "Maybe this is trying to teach me the things I need to learn", "I think I deserve this according to my KARMA" and "This too shall pass".

I believe in "KARMA". It plays a very important role in our life. How to react, speak, do things, talk, and whatnot. So, I used to say "This Too Shall Pass". 

No matter how much I cry in silence, trying to hide my pain from others, or how hard I fight to stay alive, determined to make my dreams a reality and live the beautiful life I’ve envisioned in my mind, I keep pushing forward. All with the help of a single phrase "This too shall pass".

Later on, by days, I came across a video of gratitude and its impact on life. It says that when you have gratitude for what you have now it will come in double and attract the same. So, slowly I tried to stop being sad all the time and started thinking about happy times, things I had which most people suffer to earn, etc. 

One fine day, my manifestation, gratitude everything started working slowly. I called for an interview which I don't know when I applied and even though I got rejected in that test. But I have grabbed that opportunity and been very rigid about getting back what I have lost and fighting for my loved ones, and after many trials, I have gotten the job. Not one but four offers. I felt really grateful and slowly I got back to things.

From then till now, I haven't stopped being grateful every single day. When you are sad and feeling lost, try to write down the things you feel like your fears, your struggles, and even the smallest moments of joy. Gratitude can shift your mindset, and once you start embracing it, life begins to unfold in unexpected, beautiful ways. No matter how tough the journey gets, remember that every phase, whether good or bad, is temporary. Keep believing that this too shall pass.
