Blessed

An expression which usually comes from a New Age sensibility of having more fortune than others, though stereotypically overused by slightly privileged people who unconsciously attempt to minimalize their privilege by claiming humility in regard to their fortune.

While many people use the term to express actual gratitude for good fortune and the concomitant compassion for the less fortunate, the shallow obverse side of its usage indicates a means to both hide and stabilize a certain type of privilege, generally material but also social.

In the age of instagram frequently occurs with the hashtag, i.e. #blessed

blessings from afar

Refers to where, after you sneeze loudly, someone located a long distance from you smilingly calls, "Bless you!"
Upon exiting a middle-aged friend's dusty workshop after visiting with him for a while, I let out a humongous, "Vwah-FWHOOF!", complete with an exaggerated "blasted off my feet from the explosion" high-jump. Another pleasant-natured dude who was mowing his lawn on the adjoining property cheerfully responded, "Bless you!", even though he was more than a hundred feet away. A small and "casual" gesture, to be sure, but I never forgot it --- there's just something special and memorable about blessings from afar.
