So much of life is spent striving, we hardly notice we’re doing it. Chasing after more keeps our attention on what we don’t have and prevents us from enjoying all that we do have. It’s a socially sanctioned, yet insidious habit that plagues us no matter how much we achieve or acquire. When we intentionally shift our focus to the good fortune we already enjoy, we develop a remarkable sense of freedom and contentment. Gratitude is the shortcut to the Now and that is…

The best place to be.
