gratitude is the absence of want, when what is needed has been provided and one is grateful and appreciative…….i have concluded that i only think i know what will make me happy, and that is contingent on my current ”flavors of the month,” but God knows what i need to fill in those places in my mind that at times feel lacking……….everything else is a temporary diversion……

the feeling of wholeness and completeness is contingent on my willingness to embrace with unwavering confidence that God knows best and God knows when……………that is more than enough………..and that is gratitude, the absence of want
