Gratitude, in particular, has become a popular resolution. For many of us, living gratefully seems to promise more happiness in our lives.
But what if weve got gratitude all wrong?
I began writing my book The Art of Gratitude because I too believed that gratitude might offer an antidote to the anger, fear and resentment that characterize contemporary life.
