Talk about giving meaning.

Gratitude itself is an appreciation.

It's the solution to our political problems, our religious problems, our philosophical, and all of these different theoretical problems that exist.

If you just would appreciate difference...

Think about if your perspective was a gracious perspective, one in which is protected, promoted, loved, and perfected by your God.

And we appreciated the difference between your God and my God.

We appreciated the difference between your color and my color, your clothes and my color, my clothes, your height and my height, your hair and my hair, or your no hair and my hair, or very little hair.

If we appreciated the differences, imagine how awesome life is.

Simply by having gratitude.

And then secondarily, how about just having forgiveness of self?

Knowing in the context of meaning and relativity of this idea of being happy, and I'm making a meaningful, definite, purposeful choice.

I'm applying my why.

I'm applying my spirit.

I'm applying my God to being happy.

Well, then I have to forgive myself.

You cannot find happiness outside of you

In fact, you can't find anything outside of you that you don't seek inside of you.

And so if we're not utilizing the appreciation given through gratitude, the ease that's given through and peace that's given through forgiveness,

then we are not aligned with the purpose of our human experience, which is to learn.

From Sanskrit, thousands of years ago, there is only texts that say, the reason you're here, dummy, from the time your heart starts till the time it stops.
