As a general rule, I am a rather grateful person. But I can't be hypocritical about this. Here's what I must say... It's a WHOLE lot easier to be grateful when things are going well.It's easy to think then that we 'created' all those good things.

In everything, there's a component of hard work, a component of timing, and if we are truly honest, even a component of luck. Not law of attraction. Not 'willing' it... Plain old luck! Coincidence. Whatever we call it. And it requires true humility to admit that, most especially *after* we have become its fortunate recipients.
