Gratitude - A Means Or A Result?

Gratitude is said to be essential for creating a better life of health, wealth and happiness. But is this true? Is the daily journal, like the one Oprah and many others keep, and is the Abraham-Hicks exercise of a 'rampage of appreciation', an effective means for experiencing true happiness and abundance? Or is this human quality an automatic and spontaneous by-product of being happy and at peace with oneself?

So, the big question is this: is gratitude a means to a more fulfilled life, or is it the result?

I am truly curious to know what others feel about this quality or attitude, and any role it might have in creating a better life for oneself.

What do YOU feel?
