Be thankful of others
Homily for the bereaved I would like to see this world as pure gift and therefore, I am always thankful. If I have a thankful disposition, I have no time to complain or to worry, because I know, everything has been provided for by God who loves us. A thankful heart seeks to thank the many persons in one life. He will always thank God for the gift of people. And for this one particular person, thankfulness comes in because of the innate goodness of someone who has been a gift to us. I thank you for your presence in my life. Second, I thank the person for what he has made me become. I'm sure I can be anyone else. But with the loved one, my heart is transformed into something beautiful. Third, a real thankful heart is when the person passes away, but his memory will last a whole lifetime. I will keep the loved one in my heart as long as I live because I am thankful. Eventually, a thankful heart opens oneself to God who is the author of all these gifts. And to Him
