YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Gratitude does not come from our wiring.

Fear and anxiety do. Our ancestors survived by paying attention to danger, not goodness, and we inherited that instinct. That is why gratitude can feel unnatural, especially when life is heavy.

Thanksgiving is our yearly intervention to interrupt those ancestral instincts and remember that we still have agency, even in suffering. We can choose what we return to. We can guide our emotions instead of being carried by them.
