Thank-Less

 I heard a catchy phrase that is the opposite of gratitude.  It is “taking-for-granted-tude.”  I like it because it is memorable, more so than “thankless.”  If something went well yesterday but I wake up today and fail to be grateful, then I am moving toward taking something for granted.  Often enough I have stumbled back into bad behavior after a string of good behavior, and I have found out that I forgot about prayers of gratitude.  I need a greater Power than myself on a daily basis to say on the path of being free and happy.  Since this power is not really me, I need to say “thank you,” so that I don’t fall back into the misery that results from “taking-for-granted-tude.”
