dispositional gratitude induces a mentality that stands in counterbalance to the mainstream threads of our culture.
we live in a capitalist meritocracy.
this meritocracy encourages people to be self-sufficient – masters of their own fate.
people who have grateful dispositions are hyperaware of their continual dependence on others.
they treasure the way they’ve been fashioned by parents, friends and ancestors who were in some ways their superiors.
they’re glad the ideal of individual autonomy is an illusion because if they were relying on themselves, they’d be much worse off.
