Oh, I didn't think you meant you were faking it, Gina! I'm sorry for any misunderstanding. I think you are being mindful of gratitude. A wise colleague of mine often said, "We become what we practice to be," and I think your practicing an attitude of gratitude will make you become more naturally grateful without needing to think about it. I know the saying, "Fake it 'til you make it," can have negative connotations about pretending to be something one is not, but I also think it holds some wisdom that connects with my colleague's saying. The thing we are "faking" will eventually become a part of who we are, and if that thing is positive, like gratitude, then that's a good thing!
You go, girl!
