Last few months I have not posted anything here. I suppose I am not in a sufficiently "surrendered” state of mind to create words that bear the true imprint of thankfulness. I will wait until that occasion when I am seized by gratitude and my innards start throbbing with renewed awareness of how others contribute to my happiness.
Thankfulness is a state of mind. Even adversity should be thanked. Shri Aurobindo has once said thankfully about his year-long imprisonment in Alipore jail, “The only result of the wrath of the British government was that I found God.”
