Opening the door to gratitude is not easy.But when you find out how improbable it is that this (whatever this is) is happening - that anything is happening at all - it can liberate this moment, and the next, and the next, into a new-found amazement. And wonder and amazement, even at the mundane everydayness of life, are the ground from which gratitude arises.Gratitude, resentment, cynicism, resignation - all involve no small measure of choice on your part.Which are you in the midst of choosing today?
