Thanksgiving season reminds me that no matter where, with what, or with whom we are in life, we have so much to be grateful for. When you look around with gratitude-filled eyes, there is so much splendour lurking around you that you can find something positive in everything well, almost everything.
So, with the seasonal nostalgia and childlike enthusiasm kicking in, decided to give my small gratitude journal a go with the help of the popular childhood game People, Places and Things, since life’s beauty often lies in the time we spend with people we love, in the spaces that invigorate us and doing things we enjoy.

It was a sheer coincidence that four of them happened to be somewhat similar in their short, petite frames. But it does feel like providence that all of them turned out to be more like sisters to me.
