Last week, in my post on Crazy people during lockdown, I had thanked people providing us essential services in these times. Many people subsequently wrote to me about the need of gratitude in this crisis situation. So I am keeping my post simple today. I will be practicing the most common but one of the most effective gratitude exercises - Journaling. I will write down few things which I am grateful for, especially grateful because these things help me to deal with the lockdown better. Here is my lockdown gratitude list:
1. I am grateful that, at this time, I have a job and I can provide for my family.
2. I am grateful that I have a ceiling on my head and a home where social distancing is possible in a comfortable manner.
3. I am grateful that I have family members, who help me deal with my anxieties.
4. I am grateful that I have a roof top terrace, where I can go for a walk, get some fresh air and see the sun / moon
5. I am grateful for internet, because without it there would be no job, no entertainment and no online deliveries of groceries.
6. I am grateful that I have a three year old son, who makes me feel good with his happy antics, even when 'Work From Home' hours exceed the acceptable norms.
What are the things you are grateful for today? Do share with me in comments section!

My theme for this year's #AtoZchallenge is Lock-down Blues. I intend to write and talk about how I deal with it, what it inspires me to read or watch or any aspect of it which fascinates me. You can read the theme reveal post here.
