[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try writing every day the 3 things you were grateful for that day, small or big. [/quote] +1 I’m an atheist but I think often about the biblical story about many Israelites dying because they refused to look at the serpent on a pole. It just sounded like too easy of a solution. So often we want a magic bullet to take our pain away but we keep suffering, because we refuse to do the little things or we slack off on them. A consistent gratitude practice is magical. Of course pain and disappointment and are just parts of life and it won’t help to just shove those feelings down. But we need to keep them in perspective. Acknowledge them and their validity and then keep up the gratitude practice. And make an effort to be happy for people when they have good fortune. (Unless they’re jerks. Then just get zen about life not being fair)[/quote]
