The Art of Living, Episode 9: Gratitude (Part I)

Welcome to Lily: The Voice of Alice von Hildebrand. In this first series, Lily guides us through a chapter-by-chapter reflection of Dietrich von Hildebrand's book The Art of Living, which began as a series of radio lectures in 1930s Germany. In this episode, Lily reflects on gratitude. Written as a separate essay in the last year of Dietrich von Hildebrand’s life, gratitude is seen as a crucial virtue. Lily discusses how gratitude is crucial in finding happiness, that one must be grateful for the great gifts of life, being, faith, and everything in between.
