Hello and welcome back to practicing human the podcast where every day we are getting a little better at life.

I'm your host, Corey Miskara. How are you all doing today? What do you think of that opening? Every day we're getting a little better at life. I'm playing around with it. There's something about it I like. It's kind of catchy and it feels appropriate for what we're doing

Anyway, I am back here on Long Island a lot of traveling lately was in New York City then Philly

I'll be here for a couple days, then I'm off to California.

But for now, nice and settled in my home, sitting in my closet with my meditation bells and a half-eaten bowl of salad, the glamorous life of a

podcaster.

And I have to say, I feel like I'm opening every podcast with this, but I am just so grateful for everyone.

My heart really feels so full.

I just opened up iTunes again and yesterday I was celebrating because we had

165 star reviews we have over 200 five-star reviews 24 hours later.

That's crazy. I don't know where this is all coming from, what you are all doing, but that's,

um, it... What do I say, get your words out, Corey.

I'm just very grateful.

And gratitude, you know how each of us

have different character strengths or personality qualities

that come easy to us?

For some of us, it's presence, others it might be flow, others it might be gratitude.

Gratitude was never one that came that easily to me. My mind was always actually much more future oriented, so I get very excited about stuff. But when

good things happen, I don't actually take too much time to process and appreciate it. And there's

something about this, this podcast podcast experience all the feedback and

seriously all these reviews that's just touching me in a in a significant way and

I'm not just saying that.
