"Someone said that the greatest cause of ulcers is mountain- climbing over molehills."-Maxwell Maltz
I guess it is human nature to make our problems seem bigger than they really are. Maybe it is a part of our survival instinct? If you did not worry about being eaten then you got eaten.
Our modern worries range from money to health. Everyone has their favorite weakness. To some it is drinking too much. Others spend too much. Most eat too much.
Picking on overeating(I have been known to do that) for a moment. This habit causes me and others to suffer poor health. Often it is not what we eat BUT what is eating us. The overeating causes indigestion BUT often the cause is the indigestion of the soul. Food is just a chosen mechanism to satisfy it.
I think that many of the problems are due to lack of gratitude for what we already have. Gratitude is interesting. Most people would classify it as a feeling. You are feeling gratitude towards something or someone.
There is another way to think about it. Gratitude as a muscle that you must exercise often in order for it to grow.
Today's question is:
"Have you worked your gratitude muscle today?"
