Gratitude

Sometimes I feel like I am ungrateful. Someone close to me told me I am the most ungrateful person they have ever met. Maybe I am grateful, I just don't know how to show it? I was taught that gratitude is an action word. Should I pray to be more grateful and to be able to show it better?

Today I am grateful for my 2 weeks sober. I am grateful for my life today. I am grateful for God, my boyfriend ,my car and SR.

Hi dizzy, congratulations on your 2 weeks! Make a point to say thank you. In early sobriety, I would remind myself to do this. You are doing great keep going dear.

Question

Thank you for replying Pinkdog. I will make it a point to say thank you. I think I'm really hard on myself sometimes. It stung when that person told me that but it may be something I need to look at!
How do people show gratitude? ? How is gratitude expressed?
