The Virtues of Mercy and Gratitude That Frees Us From Enemies

Gratitude is the antithesis of resentment and envy. Out of the 10 commandments four of them deal with envy really. I think that gets to the root of one of the definitions of envy, which is the disaster of counting other people's blessings. The spiritual practice of gratitude frees us from envy and allows us to gladly give To others even where there's no clear cut obligation.
