Lack of Thankfulness

When we do not genuinely say thank you in our lives, this ungrateful attitude will interfere with our spiritual growth. Sometimes we simply must
come to such a level of gratitude that we can just say, "Thank you Lord for allowing me to be sick and giving me this opportunity to read more. Thank
you for this opportunity to be more introspective. Thank you for giving me this chance to appreciate health and use it more efficiently when I have
it." When someone criticizes us, we can thank them for helping us look closer at ourselves. When someone praises us, we can thank the Lord for
showing us our big egos and thank Him for seeing that it needs to be deflated. When we face dishonor, we can thank the Lord for keeping us humble
and preventing us from relying entirely on our own abilities. We want to have gratitude towards the Lord, towards His representatives, and towards
everyone in our environment.  We can even feel grateful for those who have fallen into maya  for distinctly showing us what we want to avoid.
