The Gift of Gratitude Hello, my name is Sarah, and today I want to share a story about gratitude. It’s a lesson I learned a few years ago, and it changed the way I see the world. When I was younger, I always wanted more. I wanted the latest phone, the newest clothes, and the best things my friends had. I spent a lot of time thinking about what I didn’t have, and it made me feel unhappy. I compared myself to others and always thought, "Why can’t I have that?" One summer, my family decided to visit my grandparents in a small town. It wasn’t a fancy place, and there wasn’t much to do. At first, I didn’t want to go. I thought it would be boring, and I didn’t like the idea of leaving my comfortable city life behind. But my parents insisted, so I had no choice. When we arrived at my grandparents' house, I saw how simple their life was. They didn’t have a big TV, a fast internet connection, or many of the things I was used to. But despite that, my grandparents were always smiling, and they seemed so happy. I didn’t understand it at first. One afternoon, I was sitting with my grandma in the garden. She was picking vegetables for dinner, and I was quietly scrolling through my phone. My grandma noticed and said, "Sarah, why don’t you put the phone down for a bit? Come help me with the garden." Reluctantly, I agreed. As we worked together, my grandma started talking about her life. She told me stories about her childhood and how things were much harder back then. "We didn’t have much, but we were always thankful for what we had," she said. I was curious. "How could you be happy with so little?" I asked. She smiled and said, "Happiness isn’t about what you have. It’s about being grateful for the little things-the food on your table, the roof over your head, and the people you love." Her words made me think. For so long, I had been focused on what I didn’t have. But my grandma showed me that I already had so much to be thankful for. I had a loving family, good health, a place to live, and opportunities that many others didn’t have. That night, as we sat around the dinner table, eating the vegetables we had picked together, I felt something change inside me. I realized how much my grandparents appreciated every little thing in their life. They didn’t need expensive things to be happy; they were grateful for the love they shared, the simple meals, and the time spent together. When we returned home after that trip, I started to see my life differently. I stopped comparing myself to others and began to appreciate the things I had. Instead of wishing for a new phone, I felt thankful for the one I had. Instead of feeling jealous of my friends' new clothes, I felt lucky to have enough to wear. This new attitude of gratitude made me feel happier and more peaceful. I understood that life isn’t about having more; it’s about appreciating what you already have. Even when things are difficult, there is always something to be grateful for.
Gracias por vuestro trabajo. No solo hacéis más fácil aprender inglés; además transmitís valores que cada vez se van olvidando más. Y eso, en estos días de reguetón e Instagram, se encuentra poco.
Hello , it’s a beautiful, very clear story, I ‘m starting to understand without subtitles. I’m grateful for your teaching. Thank you very much and see you in the next video. 😊
Estoy amando estos audios, amo el idioma ingles pero no tengo los recursos para estudiarlo en una academia, acabo de escuchar ésta historia y le entendí un 95% mientras la escuchaba , la degube en el min 7 por que mi propósito es traducirla yo misma, escribirlo y luego compararlo con el resto del video, así conoceré mis debilidades en el idioma.
