The Life Changing Nature of Gratitude

In the system of Reiki we are often told to make the Gokai a part of our lives, we are meant to live the Gokai.

The third one (or the fourth, depending on who you ask) is "Be Grateful".

Today while reading a blog I frequent I came across a ver good article that I feel captures the meaning of what it truely means to "Be Grateful".

This is a blog that post articles on the Minimalist Lifestyle. I find that those who live this lifestyle, often have worthwhile things to say. Maybe I'm bias though since that is my way as well

That's beautiful

Words like utopia came to mind
as I read it.I was also thinking
that it would be nice if we were
born into a lifestyle of gratitude.
Can we be grateful when we have not
experienced all of life's up & down
challenges.
