Alanis brings us this classic song that is all about focusing on and strengthening gratitude for ourselves and our brothers.

This song is a beautiful reminder that there is so much to be grateful for if we just make up our minds to focus on that. The beautiful music video shows us symbolically how important it is to allow ourselves to be ‘naked’ and vulnerable as it’s hard to appreciate and be grateful when we are wearing defenses and holding up the the armor of a mask.

Lyrics:

How ‘bout getting off of these antibiotics
How ‘bout stopping eating when I'm full up
How ‘bout them transparent dangling carrots
How ‘bout that ever elusive "could have"

Thank you, India
Thank you, terror
Thank you, disillusionment
Thank you, frailty
Thank you, consequence
Thank you, thank you, silence

How ‘bout me not blaming you for everything
How ‘bout me enjoying the moment for once
How ‘bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
How ‘bout grieving it all one at a time

Thank you, India
Thank you, terror
Thank you, disillusionment
Thank you, frailty
Thank you, consequence
Thank you thank you silence

The moment I let go of it
Was the moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it
Was the moment I touched down

How ‘bout no longer being masochistic
How ‘bout remembering your divinity
How ‘bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How ‘bout not equating death with stopping

Thank you India
Thank you Providence,
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence..
