Grasptitude

We want
We want more

We hear that if we practice gratitude there are “benefits”
We want those benefits

How can we truly appreciate something when we want more
How can we be thankful, when we want more

When we are constantly grasping, reaching for the next thing
Entitled to more – greedy

Gratitude is built on the foundation of sufficiency
That this is enough

That in this moment
I am truly and deeply enough

It is settled in the heart – not fleeting
An expansive space of grace – descending upon us from creation

Acceptance of creation’s gifts
And challenges

Thankful contentment
Curled up within oneself

Life’s sweetness
Authentic Gratitude
