I often heard from my friends that they send much money to their friends for their(my friends' friends) marrige or birthday. I think that there is as much debt as gratitude.As for this generation, people get money for marriage, birthday ans celebration the birth of baby after one month and put down the accounts so as to follow when we have to return in the future.Maybe someone can't stand for too much debt fo gratirude, when even turns into burden in life. But Chinese people pay particular attention to the cost of interpersona relationship, which is to maintain the relationships among people."Gratitude" may be a kind of affection, care, greeting or blessing, rather than "debt". How do you repay "debt of gratitude" in your life and in your country? Welcome to join this discussion and let's us share the good ideas!

hi y mkwcw oh I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my best friend and outside of giving her my undying love and gratitude I do not know how I can repay her as she loaned me money when I was desperately in need of help, then I am now in a position where Ihave little spare money. I had not thought when she helped me that I would ever be in a position where I could not repay her in small portions out of my social security check but now I have had to let Gold crest take mysocial security and ssi checks for the rent and board each money and I only get back onehundred twenty five dollars for my own personal expenses.so i tried to give her small amounts but she will not take it at all.so all I can do is be the best friend I can be to her. I am in the United States.

I pay the debt of gratitude in my life by doing the same to others like if they send birthday cards then I will send also to them when they celebrate their birthdays. Gratitude is a state of being grateful when others do something good and kind to you. If that friend of mine let me borrow money during my hardest time then if one day they will borrow money I will gladly do the same. I'm not the type of person who only take and never gives back. This world will never work if this kind of attitude prevails in the mind of the populace.Gratitude will create a friendship and closeness among people.
