It's narcissistic of you to presume that everyone else's experience of life and path to this group is the same as your own.
>What you’ve been witnessing over the last 10-15 years is a Mao styled, internet cultural revolution. In the past, there clearly was no internet, so it took more time for the ideologies to be supplanted into the collective consciousness, but not with the internet.

Start small, anon. Do you have a left foot? If so, chalk up one bit for the gratitude list. Does any part of that foot NOT hurt? Chalk up another point. Do you have two legs? Chalk up two more points. If they both work, and you haven't been grateful for that fact, then perhaps you are an inveterate ingrate. It's not too late to improve your outlook. Take stock of every part of your body which is in working condition, even if it hurts. Put all those in the gratitude column. Add in a second point for all the parts which both work AND don't hurt. The start looking around you, again starting small.
Being thankful for everything in your life which ISN'T hurtful or missing is a great way to build up your gratitude list. Reviewing this list every day upon waking is a positive way to start your day. Sending out grateful and positive vibes tends to bring more things and experiences for which you can be grateful. Don't miss your chance to recognize these and express gratitude for them.
