![“[I] never talk about gratitude and joy separately, for this reason. In 12 years, I've never interviewed a single person who would describe their lives as joyful, who would describe themselves as joyous, who was not actively practicing gratitude.” quote by Brené Brown](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f8a/bren-brown-280_gratitude_i-never-talk-about-gratitude-and-joy-sep_104573.jpg)
