Day 7 – What Does Gratitude Feel Like To You?

I thought it might be fun to look at this from a different angle…

What causes a lack of gratitude? — A preoccupation with the self can cause us to forget our benefits and our benefactors, or to feel that we are owed things from others and therefore have no reason to feel thankful. … Entitlement and self-absorption are massive impediments to gratitude. (Nov 12, 2013) Taken from Greater Good Magazine
