on gratitude...

…contd..

Gratitude says I am validating all that I am receiving and not just looking at things, I haven’t received yet. We are not turning a blind eye to our goals or things we wish to own/ experience. We are aware of our needs and desires and working towards its fulfillment. While you are working towards your fulfillment of desires – where is the necessity to feel empty? You are complete right this moment you can be blissful and peaceful right this moment. Possession /non-possession of things/ situations can not fulfill/ empty you. This awareness and the paradigm shift brings about gratitude in us.

Gratitude for
· help /money received though it be loan from someone received in times of need.
· Free classes / counseling / help/ suggestions received in life.
· Healings received many times unasked and unknown from even unknown persons
· For the abundance called nature which is so beautiful and varied in forms and hues of life
· For the miracle called the body, mind and intellect
· For the abundance of relation-ships in life
· For the two square meals a day, even for safe drinking water
· For having a roof above our head
· For having a friend /person who is ready to listen to all my woes whenever I call that person
· For the sun to rise and set at its accorded time

We can go on….but still the list wouldn’t be complete..

Gratitude brings about the awareness that I am already receiving more than I deserve, but I wish to experience something that I don’t have and am willing to work towards materialization of my desires.

I request all to come out with areas where we can develop our gratitude. Till I jot down yours, I go to write tomorrow’s blog….if I don’t find any posts then I presume you never give it a thought…
