Today is a day of gratitude. A day to specifically think of all the things that are good in life. Which is a pretty long list.
I think that this is important because, for most of us, gratitude is not a natural emotion. It is far more natural for us to take things for granted, and just assume that "normal life" includes all the good stuff we've got.
So gratitude doesn't always come to us automatically. We have to work at it; we have to deliberately take a moment, or a day, and remember all the things we should be grateful for.
I'm going to try and think carefully on this subject today. Because I suspect that joy and gratitude are, if not identical twins, then very close brothers.
