When we reside in Gratitude, it's impossible to simultaneously feel like a victim.

About This Quote

When we reside in Gratitude, it's impossible to simultaneously feel like a victim. This quote is extremely powerful and I am not just saying that because I wrote it. You may need to read the book, The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing , by Marie Kondo, in order to fully understand the quote. While this book is about tidying up our physical spaces, I particularly love the section on gratitude.

If we live in gratitude, we can't feel like victims. We can't be victims of someone else's bad choice or bad luck. We don't have to be victims of our personal circumstances or any circumstance that is beyond our control.
