Finding Gratitude in the Darkest Moments via /r/gratitude

Gratitude isn’t always easy, sometimes it feels impossible when life is heavy and pain feels overwhelming. But in those hardest times, gratitude can be a lifeline, a quiet choice to notice a single, small spark amid the darkness.

I’ve learned that even in suffering, acknowledging what still remains, breath, presence, or the kindness of a stranger, can plant seeds of healing and hope.

What’s one challenging moment where practicing gratitude shifted your perspective, even slightly? Your experience might help someone struggling right now.
