I am grateful for my parents, who provide everything to me and who love me dearly. I am grateful for my sister for always being by my side, even during the times I am really unkind to her. I am grateful for the books I have, all the books that have been with me during the times I needed someone the most. To all those authors, THANK YOU, including you Jay! I am grateful for this life, this wisdom and the hunger to learn more. I am grateful for all the opportunities that came my way and all the sorrows that didn't. I am grateful for all my family members who show their concern, which is sometimes too much, but have too much is better than having nothing. I am grateful for this day, for this now, and for everything that would come. Thank you, in advance.

[@bulletfastspeed]

I am grateful for the amount of helpful internet content creators that selflessly share great life advice. And for the friends of mine that reinforce those ideas as well. I have spent so much time on the internet from a young age, definitely messed up my dopamine receptors and my willingness to delay gratification. But with these positive reinforcements, it makes it easier to get into the mindset of journaling, scheduling, meditating, genuine conversation, general gratitude and love of life, etc.

Those regrets from hospital patients at 6:40 hit my emotional button squarely! Wow, the first three Jay read are the first three I would imagine having were I in that position. That is, unless I get to work and change some things in my life (which, I will). Thank you, Jay.

[@stacyjardine9122]

I am so grateful for my parents and my sister and her fiancé. My husband and I are taking a big leap into buying a small business. These people came together to help us get enough money for the down payment. Then, as the stress builds in this process they listen and reflect and reassure us about our path. They believe in us. They give us money we don’t deserve, we haven’t earned. And for that we are grateful because this small business will be the start of a new life, and will fulfill a life dream for my husband.

[@buninthe7424]

Being able to really take the time to spend time with my family and having that being a scarce enough commodity that I am able to appreciate the time I have with them and make the most of it in a way that I didn’t before I moved out.

[@名誉ために日本人天の祖先]

I am grateful that Thanksgiving gives us the opportunity to be grateful for life as it is. When I stop obsessing over the past, its good. When I think of the Earth now, as an environmentalist, and all the green space that exists right now, I am thankful, when we look down on the planet from above in a plane, most of it that is not ocean is green and thats amazing. When I let go of the idea of native americans, (as much as I sincerely respect them, I do not think many of their ways are appropriate for the entire world, and this is why they are mostly secretive.) And think of just people as a whole, the earth as a whole, even the universe & multiverse as a whole I can begin to understand. Its not about an old wound, its about life now, people have peace all we have to do is make the most of it, and help encourage one another to be strong in what helps everyone, things like recycling as often as possible, and dispelling the nightmares from our heads when they occur, to prevent the 'crustifying' of the third eye, and remember the creative power of our own dreams & inner spontaneous magic (not a power that can be used over others to force them to be one way or another in matters that don't effect the whole, if its just a person throwing trash everywhere or trying to yolk others against their will for exclusive benefit we can rightfully intervene for them to stop.) I am thankful that I sacrifice classical perfectionism for simply covering most of the essentials. The end result of my actions is mostly good & the goal (preserving the heavenly beauty & health of the planet) is accomplished; because of this I am happy regardless of small notes that may or may not have been missed. ........ I appreciate the simplicity and ease of the teaching, a situation that can only truly be healed by sincerity, even though strength is not really necessary. Do we have the will to live in a good world? If yes, sincerely yes, then it will be so. ....

[@loshinirangan3013]

I am so grateful to be able to cook for my family. I am grateful that I am alive for my son. I am grateful that I am healing from my depression. I am grateful that I am able to practice art again.
