A9 Growing gratitude enlarges your tent for friends and foes, allowing that everyone has good points if you look hard enough -- maybe with an electron microscope. #SpiritChat

A9 growing gratitude is growing peace. Growing peace is growing gratitude. Gratitude and peace help us grow love and kindness. And then we circle back and continue to grow. #SpiritChat

A9: If we can align with gratitude, even temporarily, we can expand our perspective and get in touch with more personal resources. This can only be a good thing. #gratitude #spiritchat. Thanks for a lovely chat, Kumud!

Lol. I do love the phrase 'enlarging the tent', thank you Jim #spiritchat

A8: I believe after practicing with it and the Heartmath monitor, that it dilates the heart's electromagnetic field, creates brain coherence, reduces fear circuits in the amygdala, and increases oxytocin. Just a few things! #gratitude #spiritchat

Oddly or not this week, I was looking at a website I bought on 11:11:11 called the Gratitude of Frequency. Perhaps it's time to activate it...directing me to the heart was very helpful, thank you, since I believe gratitude dilates the heart's electromagnetic field #spiritchat #gratitude

A7 accepting thanks is difficult to do, sometimes.. but that is a gift also..to have given someone a reason to be grateful. #spiritchat

Now that's a quote #spiritchat

A7: Aha! Gratitude for the essay question! Unconditionality will help us align with the frequency more, whether in giving or receiving. So perhaps that's a similarity. A difference - possibly the giver can be in a more expanded vibration in that moment, to help the other. #spiritchat

So true. Emotional stillness, coherence, and alignment are still an unknown for so many (not saying I'm perfect or anything, but on the journey). #spiritchat

Excellently put Kathleen #spiritchat

Thank you for the metaphor and visual #spiritchat

A6: I was ultimately grateful that I could identify the difference between what I was being told and the other person's desire to project their energy onto me for control purposes. #spiritchat #gratitude

Thank you! #gratitude #spiritchat

A5: @holisticsailor.bsky.social I think just mentioned it - gratitude as a frequency. So the teaching or learning is how to align with that frequency #spiritchat

Ears perk up. Quadrants of gratitude? More, please, when you can! #spiritchat

A4: Reading your post, Kumud, reminded me of something my mother used to say - "Dear Sun, please warm us". As a young person, it irritated me! But she planted a seed like your maternal grandmother, so now I say it, without irritation and with #gratitude #spiritchat
