When you feel gratitude, often you are looking at a difficulty that you have overcome, but there is still some of that “struggle” vibration present.
The state of appreciation is seeing whatever you are looking at through the eyes of Source. . .
You could walk down a crowded street with all kinds of things that a lot of other people would find a reason to criticize or worry about, and you would not have access to them because your vibration of appreciation is picking out for you things of a different vibrational nature.
We want you to understand that abundance expands proportionately to match desire, and that there is great untapped abundance not yet allowed by the very humans who have created it. When your life experience causes a focused desire within you, the means to fulfill that desire is created at the same time—but you have to be on the Vibrational wavelength with your desire in order to see the path to the fulfillment of it.
A belief in shortage or lack will prevent your discovery of the path to your own creation, and any feeling of resistance indicates that you are on the wrong Vibrational path.
However, in your understanding of the never-ending abundance of this Universe, you
will feel personal delight whenever you observe anyone’s alignment with it, for their achievement can in no way diminish yours, but can only enhance it.
Abraham Hicks, Excerpted from Money and the Law of Attraction
