Feeling grateful not for anything but the feeling of being grateful. Yes I am grateful for spontaneous gifts and favours and unexpected events that bring joy and all the gadgets that aid me and the neighbours and my carers, however when I feel the joy of gratefulness without any cause or something to bring about this feeling I feel it bodily, viscerally, a gut level heart deep chest feeling and suddenly clouds lift and I feel blessed and close to divinity.
The darkest hour and pain can be lifted out of its gloominess and desperation and the gift of this feeling helps me to raise my spirits and even the dark atmospheres of climate the the oppression of the worlds wars and woes are recognised but the feeling of the hopelessness is mitigated and the positive silver lining in the proverbial clouds will eventually bring about the changes that the human hearts and souls so pleadingly wish for.
What of destiny, karma and fate? Does the Universe hold an account book or is it the inculcated hard fast rules and regulations that society and our own past upbringing bestow on us and the collective will conscious and unconscious subtly and grossly impose on us in our various so called individual way and perhaps out deep intuitive wisdom temporarily clouded by the mundane and media excitement fog that attempts to smear the field of all knowing of the quiet mind.
So be it the mystery of the Universe, the Creation and the meditative stillness, does this bring about a solution and the answer to the mystery? However the feeling of gratefulness at this sublime level so to speak for me is the answer not in words or actions but on a level of understanding that is not so much human but divine.
