Produktbeschreibung

The Good Lord gave us 10 commandments, with wisdom to find the 11th, and that one is gratitude, the 11th commandment, and gratitude is the bedrock for success. Take this example, we often sit down and pray before we eat but we do not pray to say thanks for the good meal. Success in life is based on gratitude. Other ward we must give and take. In our society, we take but never give back. Another example is the trees, which shed their leaves in winter to provide nutrients to keep the plants alive to bear fruit for us all. Our society is filled with people who take and never give back anything.
