Here's something to think over on this (American) Thanksgiving Day weekend. It's from Buddhist writer David R. Loy:
This practice (of gratitude) is all the more important because we live in a culture that does not encourage us to be grateful. In fact, we are encouraged not to be grateful: consumerism involves dissatisfaction, because if people are happy with what they've got, then they are less concerned about getting more.
