It is so easy to miss the positives in life, to overlook things and take them for granted, particularly given the year we’ve had. We’ve had floods, fire, drought and a global pandemic still occurring as I speak, all of which have affected us in some way. It’s so easy to complain when things haven’t gone our way, or we have missed out on something and I’m sure that each one of us can sit here today and reflect on a setback or disappointment we have had in the near past, and it would be easy to see these things as negative. However, I want to propose to you a different way of looking at these things and that is looking through a lens of gratitude, as I believe that it is the most powerful perspective shift one can have.
