Never meditated in the Buddhist sense. I'm not a particularly spiritual person, and the idea of doing some sort of 'meditating' doesn't appeal to me at all - it's not something that fits my concept of 'me'. That said, I do spend a little bit of time - every day if I can - thinking about the many good things in my life and how much worse things would be without them. By doing so I find that I appreciate my situation a lot more, am much less likely to take things for granted, and am a lot more stoic about the not-so-good things that happen to everybody from time to time.
