I'm thankful.

An acquaintance on facebook just posted this, & it rubbed me the wrong way...

"I kinda disagree when people say "be thankful" for a job, good health or things in your life! I work hard for my sh_t and I expect the best! Thankful, are you kidding me? People that say that are people that are ok with being average!!"

I disagree with this statement & I think that being THANKFUL is showing GRATITUDE & APPRECIATING what you have even if you "work hard for your sh_t". People that work their asses off get laid off, people that eat healthy & workout get diseases, & people that have "things" lose "things"... Shit happens. Something tells me he doesn't quite grasp what being thankful is & is comparing it to some sort of luck.

Thoughts?
