Do not glorify people in need because they seems to be happy.
Forcing to be grateful can freeze you in a bad situation.

Submission.

gratitude doesn't exist in a vacuum any more than love does. you love something or someone. you're grateful to something or someone. gratitude as an attitude, at least to me, implies a deity. it doesn't SAY a deity, the person feeling the gratitude may simply feel "lucky," but to express it as gratitude does beg an object. therefore i generally object to the concept of gratitude unless it's TO a specific someone.

Ummm, what? I am both happy and grateful to be in this lovely place & time in my life....nothing to do with being "grateful" to some stupid sky gawd who had Nothing to do with anything in any positive way, either.

I need to donate my horde of unused clothes.
