Contest | “Being Grateful

What is being grateful according to you?

Gratitude, my dear companions, is more than a courteous expression of thanks; it's akin to a daily boost of energy for the spirit. It's about embracing the delightful emotions that make life an exhilarating journey you never want to end. Imagine this: the uncontrollable laughter of my little sidekick, the bear hugs from my domesticated lion tamer (aka my partner), the small joys that sprinkle glitter on the mundane, the robust health that keeps me juggling responsibilities, and the award-winning role of being the multitasking maestro – these are my reasons to throw a gratitude party every day.

What are the top five things you are grateful for in your life?

My home is first and foremost a place of love and happiness , even if it looks like a mess sometimes . Our home is filled with pure happiness when my baby laughs. It's like a place where happiness never ends.

Health takes the stage as my second gratitude superstar. It is truly remarkable that we are all still intact, more or less, on a daily basis. Have you witnessed the impressive acrobatics of a three-year-old? It's fascinating to observe a small, charming warrior effortlessly defying the principles of physics.

Next up, the third gem in my gratitude tiara is the support squad that surrounds me like a pack of loyal cheerleaders. From my partner's undying love to the WhatsApp group chats with fellow moms where we exchange survival tips like secret agents, having a strong support network turns the chaos into a perfectly choreographed dance routine.

Then, there's the fourth gem – the little joys that sprinkle magic into our lives. Whether it's the mesmerizing colors of my morning coffee or the quiet bliss of sneaking chocolate when the toddler is finally asleep, these moments are the unsung heroes that turn the mundane into the extraordinary.

Last but not least, there's the radiant gem of purpose that comes with being a dedicated mom and domestic lion tamer. While my days may be filled with the messiness of spilled milk and Lego landmines, the opportunity to shape a tiny human and keep a household from turning into a circus tent gives my life a sense of meaning and purpose.
