A question posted on the social media giant Reddit has elicited more than 8,000 comments in less than 24 hours — and it has nothing to do with elections or politics, with the economy or inflation, or with controversies or conflicts or quandaries.

Instead, it's about life and gratitude — and recognizing the positive things in life.

"What is awesome, has always been awesome, and will forever be awesome?" one Reddit user posed on the hugely popular "Ask Reddit" subreddit.

Sixty years in music and she was a class act as a 16-year-old when she arrived in Nashville and remains that to this day. No scandal, no skeletons. As talented a singer/songwriter as there is. In my honest opinion, ‘I Will Always Love You’ rivals the greatest songs ever written. She is now awesome, has always been awesome and will remain awesome even after she's gone."
