“Gratitude is the wine for the soul. Go on. Get drunk.”
— Rumi
Simplified Meaning:
Being thankful makes us feel really good inside, like how drinking wine can make us feel happy. Think of a time when someone did something nice for you, like a friend sharing their lunch when you forgot yours. Remember how warm and happy you felt? That’s gratitude working its magic. When you appreciate the small and big things in life, your heart feels fuller and joy multiplies. For example, if you always focus on what you don’t have, you'll often feel unhappy. But if you remember to say thank you for what you do have, like a comfortable bed or a friend who listens to you, your mood will brighten. You can make it a habit to start each day thinking of one thing you’re grateful for. This simple act can change how you see life, making you happier and more positive every day.
