Gratitude is the feeling of being grateful and wanting to express your thanks to your benefactor. Gratitude they say turns what we have into enough and more, turns confusion into clarity and even a meal into a feast; it equally brings peace for today and create vision for tomorrow. But, today in our society most people have been kept in a jail of gratitude; today I see managers select and invest in their subordinate not because they are really interested in that subordinate doing well and becoming a great leader, but because they want to buy the loyalty of that subordinate. Some employers today will not sack a very problematic and complicated employee because when the company or business was in shambles, that employee chose to stay when others wouldn't.
Many spouse and children today are succumbing to the harsh, morally wrong and bad behaviour of their spouse all because when he/she had a good job and made good money, he/she was kind and generous. So now that things has become rough for him, he/she has the right to take out is frustration on them.
Many of us can’t be cerebral in our thinking and reasoning all because the opinion and feelings of our various benefactors keeps influencing and pointing the directions of our lives and career…..so sad.
But if we are really serious in progressing in life, we must breakout of this emotional captivity; break loose this sentimental jail of gratitude. It is good to show appreciation and reward your benefactor, but pay back with your future, career possibilities or life, it definitely too costly.

Let your emotions be ruled by your mind, don’t be sentimental, be logical in your thoughts before take decisions, be wise. Remember, if you excel in life, everybody will run to you, but unfortunately you fail, you will be banished and forgotten. A cell, a jail, a prison, all circumscribes you no matter how alluring and burrow it is.
Dear friend, breakout of the jail of gratitude today.
