Long time since anyone had posted on this particular thread however I wanted to bring it back up.

I just met with Dave_Kaminski a few days ago and was basically "shown" how gratefulness works. I was always very ungrateful about my University experience (felt stupider after every day of attending), and some other things. It was quite eye opening to have someone point out from a perspective of a state of genuine gratefuless, their different perspective.

I've thought and am told often that I'm a very positive person, "your the most positive happy-go-lucky guy" etc, however meeting him really changed my perspective. It seemed to help me become more genuinely positive, based on the solid foundation of gratefulness (which I oddly never really had for anything, with more of a focus on just being happy in the present moment).

After being friends with a psyhic, and speaking with her for a long time in person many times, I've found that I'm able to "see" energy around people. Lately, these days all these crazy things have been happening around me, car accidents happening near me left and right, cars flipping over, people's arm's getting broken (Dave_Kaminiski after meeting me), people with seizure attacks. However, my gut feeling tells me these are all very good things. Good things, as I know they were necessary for those people to grow, and for me to experience seeing up close and personal, in order to develop a more real form of gratefulness.

Now, I am more and more thinking that real gratefulness, level 2 gratefulness if you will, is more of a creative state than anything else. If anyone would like to chip in their perspectives on gratefulness, it would be greatly appreciated.
