Gratitude Over The Ages
- In 56 CE, the Stoic philosopher Seneca wrote a comprehensive book on gratitude, called On Benefits.
- The gifted philosopher treats the feeling of gratitude as a virtue that one needs to cultivate and implement socially.
- In his book, gratitude is defined as a glue that holds society together and makes it thrive.
- More than just acting out and reciprocating the benefits received, it is crucial to actually feel the gratitude from within.
