There is something you know about me,
something very personal,
and there is something I know about every one of you
and that's very central to your concerns.
There is something that we know
about everyone we meet anywhere in the world, on the street,
that is the very mainspring of whatever they do
and whatever they put up with.
And that is that all of us want to be happy.
In this, we are all together.
How we imagine our happiness, that differs from one another,
but it's already a lot that we have all in common,
that we want to be happy.
Now my topic is gratefulness.
What is the connection between happiness and gratefulness?
Many people would say, well, that's very easy.
When you are happy, you are grateful.
But think again.
Is it really the happy people that are grateful?
We all know quite a number of people
who have everything that it would take to be happy,
and they are not happy,
because they want something else or they want more of the same.
And we all know people who have lots of misfortune,
misfortune that we ourselves would not want to have,
and they are deeply happy.
They radiate happiness. You are surprised.
Why? Because they are grateful.
So it is not happiness that makes us grateful.
It's gratefulness that makes us happy.

It's gratefulness that makes you happy.
Now, we can ask,
what do we really mean by gratefulness?
And how does it work?
I appeal to your own experience.
We all know from experience how it goes.
We experience something that's valuable to us.
Something is given to us that's valuable to us.
And it's really given.
These two things have to come together.
It has to be something valuable, and it's a real gift.
You haven't bought it. You haven't earned it.
You haven't traded it in. You haven't worked for it.
It's just given to you.
And when these two things come together,
something that's really valuable to me and I realize it's freely given,
then gratefulness spontaneously rises in my heart,
