"Gratitude is a politically subversive act. The industrial growth society is constantly telling us that we need more: more clothes, more technology, more money, more power. This attitude breeds dissatisfaction. To express gratitude, therefore, is to counter the prevailing trend."
In HeartMath, one of the tools to help the heart come into a more coherent state is gratitude. I think it is no accident that gratitude is a spiritual practice, across time and cultures! Can we help one another foster this more, without it slipping into fake happiness or without denying the shadowy feelings as well? To have gratitude for the truth of our being, rather than constantly trying to improve and fix ourselves would be a major start.
