I write often, or mention often, being grateful.
Gratitude has become an important, central, essential, habitual, defining idea to me.
I am grateful for so much, not the least (in fact, maybe the most) because I am alive to express it, and grateful for being live. As my friend Darren said to me yesterday, "Any day you're vertical you should be grateful."
Amen.
Being grateful straightens out my mind. It is impossible to be angry and grateful at the same time. It is all I need to remember - to be grateful - when I'm otherwise in a bad mood.
I believe that being grateful feeds my overall optimism - and vice versa. Same for my consistent happiness and good spirits. I'm grateful for both, and that makes me happier and puts me in a better mood.
Being grateful is a decision I make, as is being happy. Neither comes from external circumstances. Both, though, affect external circumstances.
Funny how that works.
