It is very easy to live with gratitude when everything is going well. In “real life” there are struggles and issues. When all is considered living with true gratitude takes patience, tenacity, bravery, and practice.
Something that seems permanent and horrible happens and your future depends on you knowing how to find something in that moment to have true gratitude for. Often times it is simply the experience and the lesson you learn.
At a funeral I heard a grandmother say how thankful she was for every single memory she had of that person both good and bad. Because every single memory is a gift.

I certainly do believe that an Attitude of Gratitude is learned and that it lifts us up to a place where we experience even more “going well” going on in our lives. We have a choice! Upward spiral, downhill dive, are just staying in the same place.
