I think gratitude to Allaah is one of the keys to obtaining the complete fulfillment that most of us tend to miss out on so often.  I was sitting in the park the other day playing with my kids and I just watched how carefree they were.  All they focused on was enjoying themselves while I was sitting there worrying about whether one of them was going to fall or get injured.   That did not appear to be a concern for them.  They climbed the many obstacles in front of them with laughter and excitement.  They took them on with contentment and anticipation.  I said to myslef now why don't I take on obstacles like that? Life is and can be as easy as we want as long as we go about it with the proper approach.  I guess a similar approach to how my kids take on the park, lol.
