The Gratitude Thread!

[truth4me]

Hi everyone! I thought it would be a great idea to start a gratitude thread so we can all look back on the amazing things we have in our lives whenever we're feeling away from the   Post in it whenever you'd like! 

Some things that I am grateful for this morning (California time!)
1. It's bicycle week in Santa Cruz, Ca, so I got free breakfast this morning from one of the bike-to-work stations. Yipee! 
2. I am grateful that I am able to pursue my degree! :idea:
3. I am grateful for my friends and family
4. I am grateful for finding the llresearch archives, the Law of One, and this forum
5. I am grateful for having the privilege of being alive in this moment  

Have a wonderful day family

I'm grateful for the bring4th community. In my town, its uncommon to engage in deep conversations except with my soul group.
I'm grateful to have come across the catalyst, such as the Law of One, that has helped me to distill wisdom and love from any experience. Thanks to these distillations, I smiled when i noticed my bike was stolen 2 years ago. And 1 month ago, I yelled "YES, YEAH! IM ALIVE!" after I collided with a car on my Bicycle. Thanks to perceiving life a bit closer to truth each day.
I'm grateful for my son and girlfriend for helping me to engage directed/focused love, and balancing it with wisdom/thoughts.
I'm grateful for this thread helping me become more conscious of what I am grateful for.

[AnthroHeart]

I am grateful for the tickly feeling in my heart at times.
I am grateful for my dog Loki.

[Jade]

I'm grateful for my tiny little sanctuary of my home, with my husband and wonderful doggies, and the wonderful 2200+ acre wilderness for a backyard.
I'm grateful that everything I need is provided for me, always.
I'm grateful for music!
I'm grateful for spring and that I can hopefully plant my garden this week!
I'm grateful for a creation where we can have all of these wonderful experiences.

What I thought of recently, was how grateful I am that we have religious freedom, when I read about all the persecutions in the past and people thrown into exile (they were usually the more enlightened). I'm grateful for L/L Research, the Ra contact, and the broadband channelings (Quo, Latwii, etc.) I'm grateful that we all have such an expanded perspective because of what we have been exposed to in the Ra material, the universe is truly a place of magic and wonder. I am grateful that this planet is going to become 4th density positive, and that its harvest.

Mostly, I am grateful for love.

[Night Owl]

I am grateful that creation infinitely offers itself what it desires.

Your posts are always above the illusion. haha

I am much less serious than I appear. In fact I have a hard time taking myself or anything seriously.

I'm grateful that we can be on the internet, and have the option to use an entirely different identity than the one(s) we use in our daily life. Yet it is still the of the same identity of the infinite.

[Night Owl]

I am grateful that I can talk to myself using both our identities to entertain myself a little bit. Infinity is so much fun. The void becomes boring at times.

*feeling of bliss from the sensation of infinite unity/separation

[YinYang]

Oh yes, and I'm glad this philosophy of oneness is spreading, not just through this group, but through many sources.

A friend sent me these pics of a car she spotted in Cape Town:

What I thought of recently, was how grateful I am that we have religious freedom, when I read about all the persecutions in the past and people thrown into exile (they were usually the more enlightened).

I had an interaction with a seeker who grew up in China during a more strict ban on religious freedom. She grew up with the longing that many seekers feel, but completely unable to satisfy that longing with any sort of spiritual information. Spiritual beliefs were mandated by the state and I felt such an intense loneliness conveyed as she described the experience. She managed to find the Law of One after relocating to the US and her inner longing found its direction, and I'm sure that her experiences were likely planned as catalyst. But hearing her story definitely made me feel extremely grateful for something I have always taken for granted. The fact that we have the ability to seek out and absorb information at-will is such a blessing, these days more than ever thanks to the internet.

I am also grateful for a comfortable bed to sleep in at night, and a relatively peaceful home to enjoy in comfort.

I am grateful for access to clean water and healthy food.

I am grateful for the intense honor of having a job which lies so close to my heart's longing.

I am grateful for all of the humor in my life, which helps to keep things light and makes the blessings easier to recognize.

I am grateful for the simple opportunity to stop and think about gratitude and for the ability to express it!

[Nicholas]

Just reading Austin's post prompted me to express how grateful I am to what L/L have provided us all with, and continue to do so. 

"Those of like mind which together seek shall far more surely find." - Ra.


So thanks guys for the catalyst you have offered, and the consistency you have displayed, the blogs, podcasts, choice of words on bring4th, sharing of your lives, the list could easily develop into a citation of philosophical reasons to be grateful!


Simply, Thanks.

Yay! I'm so grateful that there's so much to be grateful for!

I'm grateful that I have the privilege to share a space with a beautiful bunny rabbit, Buns Bunny. Waking up to her jumping around in my bed is hilarious and she is also a crazy, loving fool like me <3

Day 3:
I am grateful for the integration of my metaphysical feelings and experiences into everyday life! It's a lifelong process ;p

I'm grateful that I have been encountering so many beautiful mirrors in my life of people who I respect and admire. I am also grateful for the mirrors who teach me humility and push me to my limits. I've felt like my reflections continue to get clearer each day.

I'm grateful for being alone!

I'm grateful for my blood family.

Day 4:
I'm so grateful I had the chance to EXPRESS myselF through art today!!! So happy, I made a beautiful heart with the laser printer
I'm grateful that so many people are coming to realize that we need to be good to each other

[AnthroHeart]

I am grateful for my best friend.

[truth4me]

Day 5:
I am also grateful for a friend of mine, her name is Lisha. She lives in the forests of Santa Cruz, and takes beautiful photographs of her friends. I had tea with her today and we went to the museum, and had really wonderful conversation. She is the most beautiful person I have ever met- more giving than anyone I know. To be friends with someone like that is invaluable.

[truth4me]

Day 6:
I'm grateful for a book which came into my sphere of influence today, The Book of Nothing by Hsin Hsin Ming. I've been recently interested in the practice of Zen and it came to me exactly when I needed it.

I'm grateful for an extremely positive and loving conversation I had with my mom the other day, where both of us were able to express our hearts without feeling resentful or argumentative! She even commended me on a point of view I developed about a childhood suffering, in which I am trying to forgive. It felt really good to be able to talk with her positively like that, I've felt like I haven't had a conversation like that in years.

I'm grateful for the retuning of my desires.

[truth4me]

Day 7:
I'm grateful that I'm starting to recognize the patterns of catalyst in my life. Even though it's repeating and repeating, the fact that I can recognize it makes me really appreciative!

I'm grateful I went to sit at a zendo yesterday. It felt like home

[Minyatur]

I am grateful for sadness.

I am grateful for grief.

I am grateful for fear.

I am grateful for guilt.

I am grateful for frustration.

I am grateful for anger.

I am grateful for doubt.

I am grateful for jealousy.

I am grateful for envy.

I am grateful for despair.

I am grateful for all the dark emotions of love that in turn allow love to be so much more and complete.

I am grateful for unanswered calls and the ability to have been left alone in one's darkness.

I am grateful for the moment all these things are transmuted back into light and bear fruits to the soul and also what we all are.

I am grateful for everything that I already am grateful for, just as everything I have yet learned to be grateful for.

I am grateful to know there will not be a single portion of my own fate that I will not learn to be grateful for.
