Most cultures have occasions to consider gratitude - what we’re grateful and thankful for.
In the States, we have Thanksgiving & Christmas to think of something when asked, ‘so, what are you grateful for?'
Even though we may have a year of dramas, issues, and complaints, at least we have a day to reflect.
We consider our family, relationships, the kids in our lives (whether they behave the way we want, or not) - we feel grateful for them.
There’s always that uncle that’s like, ‘well you know, the holidays are a conspiracy.’ - We’re thankful for him too.
We’re grateful for certain people in our lives and the specific things we’ve got - the job, the career, the apartment, the home, the car, the successes and triumphs.
We’re grateful for what we feel is special in our lives.
It’s interesting that we’re grateful for the specifics, but often overlook the basics.
