Before I consider gratitude, a response to life that seems as natural to me as breathing, I consider empathy and what it means to be human. While what I am most grateful for is highly personal, knowing that I might value some things in a similar way as other people enhances my feeling of connection and belonging, which is somethiong I am esp[ecially grateful for. Think of three things that you are grateful for.  Think about another person who values the same thing. How does sharing this object or experience of regard affect your sense of being grateful for that experience?
