The common theme we hear now from people is about fears, anxieties, uncertainties. In as much as people want to stay calm and positive, the conditions are simply telling the other way around.
It is now more than ever that we need to spread the spirit of Gratitude.
Gratitude is not a condition…it is a paradigm..the way we look at things.
It may not be experienced by a man who has everything on his dining table but experienced by a beggar who found bread in the pile of garbages.
Times are difficult, but I am comforted by the fact that I am with my family and that we are all well. Something that I am really grateful for.
I am also confronted with thoughts about death. During the start of the pandemic, death is just seen as figures reported on the news. But recently, the experience is already in the fence, people I know, friends…
And so opening my eyes every morning brings gratitude. Grateful for the life.
We are not sure if things will get better. But we can make our life better by just simply being grateful for what we have now. If it is about the way we look at things, let us then choose to wear the lens called GRATITUDE.
By the way, allow me to introduce to you the twin sister of gratitude…her name is HAPPINESS. Welcome one, and experience both.
