You do not have to be grateful for your life situation...but you can always be grateful for Life.
Eckhart Tolle ( somewhat paraphrased)
Eckhart Tolle on Fulfilment and Gratitude for Life
When you look for that goodness that is deep within you in external things...or look for the happy resolution, the happy ending that comes you will never be fulfilled. We need to recognize that we are already fulfilled...have just forgotten that we are.
This "I am already fulfilled" begins by singling out this moment as much as possible, and noticing how the gratitude arises.
Look for the goodness within...even in tough life situations...and you will find gratitude for life.
On the Expression of Emotions
Expression is better than repression but...
The expression of emotion alone will not free you. Expression can instigate the thought process. The thought processes can create renewal of these emotions.
Sometimes emotions can be transformed or transmuted by merely bring present to them.
We can express without indulging it or personalizing it...just watch it as energy.
All is well
