properly appreciate
“There were ten lepers healed,
and only one turned back to give thanks,
but it is to be noticed that our Lord
did not recall the gift from the other nine
because of their lack of gratitude.
When we begin to lessen our acts
of kindness and helpfulness
because we think those who receive
do not properly appreciate
what is done for them,
it is time to question our own motives.”
