I think it IS important to feel grateful for things in your life, but it has to be on your own terms and is up to the individual to determine what those things are. I think if we don't see the good in our lives and find appreciation in those things, it's all too easy to wallow in the negative, and this is just no good.

Amen!! You're so right!! Gratitude is important. I can remember someone once saying to me, "Be grateful for the thing you
didn't get". There's so many terrible things that befall others. Life sends some curveballs. I'll just be thankful that I found a mitt, you know?
From Pudd'nhead Wilson by Mark Twain:
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.

Sighing and shaking my head sadly........ 
Just when you think you know a person you discover that their mind has been taken over by the evil beet creatures from planet Beetahcuss.
It is a tragic thing and I hear tell it is happening forum-wide. I believe that Kathy has also fallen victim to the evil aliens. What oh what can be done?
Fellow beet haters! Run....run for your lives!!! Before the evil beet creatures force you to eat Borscht!!
