I am responding to the question:  What area do you want to feel more gratitude for? I love bringing my attention to the now especially if I have started to think about old issues. They existed in the nows of the past, they are over unless I cling to them or am actively averse to them.  When I remind myself I am in the current now, those processes stop. I am free, safe and at ease. Thich Nhaht Han says "happiness is available"  with an impish smile. I take him at his word, repeat the phrase in a new now and feel the joy. Daniel
