Somewhere in my distant past, I remember hearing about a philosophy that is guaranteed to help anyone who is experiencing some adversity and carrying a heavy burden. I think the natural expression under such circumstances is one of sadness, regret, self-pity, etc. What is this antidote? What is there that would help me through difficult times and make my load a little lighter?
The answer is simple. It is believed that if we are truly and regularly grateful for the good things that happen to us, the good things we are given, and express that gratitude, it will return to us in the form of added strength and forbearance when our fortunes do a negative turnaround. I think it works without fail. It's too bad that I need to keep remembering this, over and over, when my humanity overcomes me. May it work for you.
