It seems the more we suffer, the more gratitude we feel. And the more we are spoiled, the less grateful we feel. Think of rich, spoiled brats. They are almost never grateful for anything, because they expect it.
If you expect something, you won't be grateful for it. You feel entitled to it, like you completely deserve it, and so you feel no gratitude.
This is why God lets us go without something for awhile so that when we have it, we will appreciate it more.
What are you taking for granted? Sure you might not have that, but you have this. Be thankful for all that you do have.
