be grateful
Count your blessings
To be grateful is to feel or show appreciation for something received or experienced.
The phrase often appears in imperatives urging someone to recognize their good fortune: You should be grateful you have a job at all.
It can also express sincere thankfulness: I'm grateful for your help.
Unlike simply saying thanks, being grateful suggests a deeper, more lasting sense of appreciation.
