After writing the previous post several days ago (and finally posting it here), I saw a tweet from @LuciSwindoll. It was a quote (author not mentioned). Rather profound.

Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French or Medieval Latin; Anglo-French, from Medieval Latin gratitudo, from Latin gratus grateful

A tidbit of truth:
"The worst possible moment
for an athiest is when he feels grateful,
and has no one to thank".
