THE HEIGHT OF GRATITUDE

Gratitude is a level of consciousness

that determines the altitude in which you will fly

in the course of your life’s journey.

​

When you study the metaphor of the

caterpillar’s transformation into a creature

of flight, you can see that it leaves behind the

old nature of inching its way along on branches.

​

 And through this you can also see the caterpillar’s

 enthusiasm for flight begins in the womb of the cocoon

 and in the grave of the same.

 

It’s a universal lesson that being grateful for

what you have is a way of creating an opening

for the things you desire.

 

 The caterpillar’s gratefulness for the

 ability to crawl made its dream 

 to soar above the trees a certainty. 

 

Rising higher comes only after we have

a full appreciation for where we are now.
