Not everything in life is good, not everything in life is easy but don't forget that there is always something to be thankful for and many, many things to be thankful for. Stop brooding over what you don't have and always focus on what to be thankful for. Spend every minute of your life in thankfulness because life is a gift

It's hard to remember to be thankful and I am trying to train myself to thank God for all the little wonderful things I see.

It's much easier for me to be discontented in life. I should start now to cultivate thankfulness. I thought I was so unlucky till I figure out some are worse than me

@petatonicsca when you start to focus on the good things you have to be thankful for, like having enough to eat or shoes to wear and a thousand other little things, which it is so easy to take for granted, because they are so ordinary we hardly notice them, then our thankfulness will grow on its own.
The more we do it the easier it becomes and soon it will become a habit then it will become a part of who you are, part of your personality.

As they say in social media - waking up is already a reason to be thankful.

Being grateful can give you a feeling of being blessed rather than dwelling with negativity.

We should set our minds to be always looking for what to be thankful for. Don't dwell on the negatives that happen along the way

I agree with you being thankful is a good way to live and it makes dealing with life when it hard much easier than when you are negative, you still have to go through hardtimes and hardships but when you change the way you look at things the things you look at change too. lol...

There's so many things to complain or hate about life but if we change our look we see there's so much to be thankful for

Happy people can easily think of reasons to be grateful, unhappy people find it easier to complain.
That's the rule. 
It isn't easy, unfortunately, sometimes it takes a very bad event to learn how to not give anything for granted.

When it comes to being thankful, you're preaching to the choir. I'm thankful to open my eyes. Yep yep. Another day Lord. Just You and me. I'm holding Your Hand.

Those are wonderfully inspiring and true words! 1 Thessalonians 5:18 says to "Give thanks in every situation because this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." It doesn't say to give thanks FOR everything, but IN everything. It's God's will for us to always thank God for all his blessings even when it would be unreasonable to thank him for the pain and suffering in life.
