Thanksgiving/Gratitude is a part of our daily lives, not at certain times of the year. We were raised to give thanks several times per day.
In a gratitude argument with someone who constantly compares her life to everyone whom she thinks is better than her is annoying.
I think the most ungrateful thing humans can do is compare their lives with others they envy. Most of us don’t know the level of hell, pain, and sacrifices many of us made to reach our destination.
Here are some of her favorite words:

She is happier than me.
But that’s the way she wants her life to be.
She wasn’t afraid to take extra steps knowing she would be free
Free of the sadness and regrets that stretch to the ninth-degree
She made the necessary sacrifices, while you enjoyed your life
Because you believe that you must live before you die.
