Description
In this videoconference talk from 13 Aug, 2021, Ajahn Anan shares stories on gratitude and how it is a mark of a good person.
"So a person who knows the goodness they have received and tries to repay it is a person who has gratitude. They know the value of the goodness that others have done to them, and they express themselves in homage to that goodness. And they aren't careless and don't put off what they should do for their mother for later. Because life is uncertain. There may be no time left to give back to them. Or when one becomes aware of what they should do, it is too late to fix it."
