"When we become aware of our humility, we have already lost it. Thus we may be most truly..." - Thomas Merton

🙏 Gratitude

“When we become aware of our humility, we have already lost it. Thus we may be most truly grateful when we are not aware that we are grateful.”

The deepest gratitude isn't something you perform — it's something you live without even thinking about it. That's when it's most real.
