the benefit of our own pure deeds
we are filled with joy;
here and hereafter
there is a celebration of joy.
Dhammapada v.16
For most of us, our critical faculties are already well-developed. The Buddha encourages us to also exercise our faculty for appreciation. When we shine the light of appreciative awareness on the pleasant consequences of skilful actions, the result is joy. Wholesomeness is enhanced when consciously appreciated.
