I wasn’t sure if I would share this or not. via /r/gratitude

But here goes, usually when I drive I think about other stuff.

But since I picked up gratitude practice in the last 2 weeks or so…

About 4 or 5 days ago I was driving with my uncle and in my mind I thought hey:
"Thank you car in front"

"Thank you car behind me"

"Thank you car to the sides"

"Thank you road"

"Thank you green light"

"Thank you red light"

"Thank you pedestrian"

"Thank you crows"

"Thank you joggers"

so basically anything that I saw while driving I would "Thank you" it/them.

At one point, I felt this feeling like I wasn't the only one driving. I know that sounds a little off because it's a feeling hard to put into words but but it felt like all drivers and/or beings on the road were all together at one point sharing the road. Like there was a shift in consciousness. Just thought I'd share that.

Edit: It was brief, like 5 seconds long but it felt like the whole scenery and everything in it was my close friend, like I am driving within myself I know how silly that sounds but I don't know how to exactly describe it.
