Wikipedia is an expert on gratitude:
"Grateful people are happier, less depressed, less stressed, and more satisfied with their lives and social relationships. A large body of recent work has suggested that people who are more grateful have higher levels of well-being. Grateful people also have higher levels of control of their environments, personal growth, purpose in life, and self-acceptance."If gratitude is good for us then what better day than Valentine's Day to let those we love know we are grateful for them. It doesn't have to mean expensive flowers and giant boxes of chocolates, but it could if "receiving gifts" is your love language.
Our Valentine's Day was a leisurely lunch out at one of our favorite places. I'm grateful to have a faithful, loving and funny Valentine.
