Gratitude for What Didn't Happen Imagine cruising with your family, thrilled about a spontaneous adventure, only to face unexpected hurdles. Joel Wong's journey on a cruise ship with a faulty motor transformed his understanding of gratitude. The article delves into the idea that gratitude isn't just about tangible gifts or happy moments. It's about recognizing "beneficial absences" -- the disasters that never happened, the criticisms withheld, and the advice not given.

Express gratitude for that today through inward reflection or by sharing with a friend. | |
