To be thankful is to acknowledge that one is dependent in ways over which one has no control. Thankfulness, appreciation, tranquility, serenity, and relaxation are enjoyed by people who acknowledge that they are not in control of their lives and that they cannot and do not want to be in control of others upon whom they are dependent in ways which they cannot control. Addicts, codependents, technocrats and participants in all kinds of collusive games of mutual self deception regarding control---cannot be thankful, appreciative, tranquil, serene, or relaxed because they must be always on guard and always trying to be in control in competition with others who are always trying to be in control. Practicing the art of appreciation and thankfulness is part of the process of recovery from addiction, codependence and collusive manipulations; for appreciation and thankfulness are possible only as one lets go of and spiritually detaches from those friends, relatives and work associates who are attached to the attitudes, habits, ideals, and values which call for being in control of self and other.
