Quote by Shunya

“Gratitude is often mistaken with humility. Gratitude erupts from inside you. You wear humility out of fear of losing things. One technique to experience gratitude is to sleep on the floor and fast. No fear... No insecurity... Pure gratitude for simple things such as food and bed.”
