It is said that a certain man always put on his spectacles when he was about to eat strawberries, so they would look bigger and more tempting. If we put on the spectacles of gratitude and appreciation, everything will look nicer and more beautiful. A sense of gratitude magnifies our common blessings. It will show us what a wonderful world is ours.
