Bow in gratitude

The practice of gratitude is honed over time with patience and
humility at its’ core. A good way to experience this practice is
bowing in gratitude. This doesn’t have to be the physical act of
bowing (but that helps); you can just bow in your mind. When you
see something arising in the mind where you see yourself stuck and
desiring something you don’t have, stop and bow to what you already
have. If you find yourself in the old habit of grumbling,
complaining or finding fault in something, stop and find something
to be grateful for. Look around you at those that are in need and
give something to them. The ego resists this practice so we know we
are chipping away at something of substance. I bow to you all.
