We live in modern & civilized times. So they say.
The popular Law of Attraction speaks of vibration, and an attitude of gratitude ”for everything”. The flow of energy is important. What we give, we receive…. If we are negative, we will not attract positive people or experiences into our lives because we will not be able to recognize them as being positive. Could it be – we are actually remembering/re-learning the teachings of ancient wisdom in modern times …
Ancient civilizations were grateful. In South America are celebrating Inti Raymi, day of the Sun, the largest celebration of the Quechuas (Incas), which made me think about gratitude. The Indians were grateful for every single ray of sunshine.
We are enclosing ourselves within buildings, cloistered within four walls and a roof, and then we set a glowing landscape with sunset, palm tree and sea on our computer desktop.
Have we lost all touch with nature? And the true meaning of the word gratitude?
Have we lost ….. our essence?
Gratitude is an exchange of energy. Much like love. It’s being thankful for all the good we receive, for the light & warmth we receive each day, for every raindrop, for tears going down our cheeks, either of sadness or tears of happiness. All that makes us feel that we are alive.
Gratitude is all that … and much more.
