Gratitude exists in different forms, notably distinguishing between shallow gratitude, which is focused on self-promotion and material possessions, and rich gratitude, which emphasizes recognizing the giver of good gifts. Shallow gratitude is problematic as it fails to acknowledge the benefactor and encourages a self-centered viewpoint. In contrast, rich gratitude fosters a deeper understanding of where blessings come from, encouraging individuals, particularly children, to recognize the source of their good fortunes. This understanding promotes a profound relational aspect of gratitude, motivating individuals to build connections and reciprocal relationships. The true purpose of gratitude transcends mere personal benefit; it serves as a social glue, facilitating relationships through acknowledgment and appreciation of others. This cycle of giving and receiving strengthens bonds and cultivates love among individuals.
