GRATITUDE THRU THE EYE OF ANOTHER -
"When someone points out a shortcoming, our first reaction may be defensive." "If the shortcomings we discover are real, and we have a chance to be rid of them, we will surely experience a sense of wellbeing." (The Basic Text, p. 36)

"An honest regret for harms done, a genuine gratitude for blessings received, and a willingness to try for better things tomorrow will be the permanent assets we shall seek." (The Big Book, p. 78)

- Hans Selye (1907 - 1982) Canadian biologist on stress theories
