Gratefulness
I need to continue to let go of my entitlement.
I am fortunate to be married to a grateful, patient, forgiving wife. She has believed in me and endured more than 3 decades of an ungrateful husband. I am so fortunate! I am devoting the rest of my life to living gratefully.
Entitlement is what keeps me from trusting that an extraordinary life is indeed already mine. At the half century mark, regretfully, I am just now seeing I have an extraordinary life.

Entitlement is what keeps me from trusting that an extraordinary life is indeed already mine. At the half century mark, regretfully, I am just now seeing I have an extraordinary life. I have been walking blind with arrogant entitlement. I am here to live differently from now on. I “found”:gratefulness.org out of the brokenness of my friend Adam. Adam was in the midst of burn out and came to my home for a few days to just be. A few weeks later he wrote in a newsletter about his soul renewing time with us and his journey into gratitude. In a few short weeks his ulcer was healed, dark mood lifted and his chest tightness released. His suffering became my double blessing. I thought he was the one in crisis, turns out (surprise) it was me. I am so grateful.
Dear Howie, I have read a few of your reflections and I can tell you are a very mindful person. The case that is presented first always seems right until it is cross examined. Your fear may be well founded, but it is also possible that it is not when it is held up against cross examination. I pray your soul would find peace my friend.
Very thoughtful. What do you think is the source of your character and physiology?
That is a courageously honest answer. Keep seeking and you will find. I prayed for you today.
