Do we pay our gratitude to God because he provided us with water? There is no life without sunlight but how many times a day do we thank God for the sun? We don't do such things because this is common. It doesn't involve gratitude. A Sufi pays his or her gratitude to God for the bounty which is not shared by the common people.  His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi explained that if you pay gratitude to God [for common things], God will think, 'He is happy in this, let's stop further bounties'.   When you are given something really extraordinary by God, your heart will automatically express genuine gratitude. This is why we need to have a true sense of gratitude.

Generally, and naturally, we are more focused on our desires and comforts. We normally are not aware of our principles: how should we lead our lives, how should we behave and the real character that we carry - is it a constant character of our being or does it shift from good to bad and from bad to worse and worse to worst?  We always have people in our circle - from our family and friends - with whom we spend time and, as a token of love and friendship and knowing each other, we tend to do favours for each other. The question is, do we appreciate their favours? If we appreciate them, how?
