Ben wondered how long he had to be grateful in this type of situation and if gratefulness amounted to outward expressions and actions or if it was simply a state of one’s mind, a feeling.

A thought provoking question. People love big gestures and the more grateful you are, the bigger the gesture should be. Always reminding someone of how grateful you are is more of a benefit for that person that for yourself.
