Meaning
This suggests that gratitude is not just a polite response, but a way of noticing that life itself is good. It can be taken to mean that thankfulness grows out of being fully present for ordinary life, and it lands in moments when someone is trying to shift from complaint to appreciation after a hard stretch.
