The idea of “Radical” Gratitude has been rolling around in my head since before Thanksgiving. This is the time of year, from Thanksgiving to the start of the New Year, when many of us ponder the year and the many gifts that it brought us while looking towards the future and what we want to happen for us to be happy. New job, new relationship, better relationship, more money, more time, more in general. The funny thing is, if we are not grateful for what we already have, how can we be grateful for what comes our way? Here’s the radical part–I’m not only talking about all the “good” stuff, I’m talking about the “bad” stuff too.
