It's easy to complain. It's easy to want more. It is much more difficult to recognize what we already have. To be #thankful. And to truly appreciate our family, friends, and co-workers. To celebrate Thanksgiving, here is a Haiku about the thing we need the most in our lives: Gratitude Appreciate Life, Haiku, Our Life, Gratitude, Appreciation, Poetry, Thankful, It's Easy, Thanksgiving

Some of my earliest #childhoodmemories are from going on vacation with my parents to Italy or former Yugoslavia. Playing in the #sand, jumping over waves. Whenever I spend time on the #beach, these memories will invariably crash over me like a wave, as this #Haiku describes:⁠ ⁠ Toes in the sand⁠ a wave crashes over me - ⁠ childhood memories⁠ ⁠ Not all the #memories are pleasant – but they are my memories, #mentalsouvenirs of times past, and I am richer for having them.⁠ Childhood Memories, Waves, Cards Against Humanity, Vacation, Parents, Italy, Beach

The small problems of everyday life can grind us down and make us forget what we really need and want. Especially now that the pandemic forces us even more into the digital world.⁠ ⁠ I was lucky enough to go on vacation for two weeks - and used it for a #digitaldetox. No work, mobile phone in the safe in the room, #justbeing.⁠ ⁠ In this #Haiku I captured how it felt when I dove into the ocean for the first time:⁠ ⁠ Ocean waves⁠ they wash me clean ⁠ of daily sorrows⁠ Digital Detox, Me Clean, Ocean Waves, First Time, The Cure, Forget

#Coralreefs as an #ecosystem are in grave danger, especially from #climatechange. Life and the beauty of #nature are #fragile miracles that we need to protect – not just for ourselves and #future generations, but for the sake of the entire planet.⁠ A #Haiku inspired by the busy peacefulness of life in a reef: A busy city⁠ drowned by waves -⁠ swarming with life⁠ Busy City, Ocean Life, Climate Change, Future, Inspired, Beauty

Chasing after happiness will not fulfill you – it will only wear you out. That is a lesson I learned the hard way.⁠ ⁠ Instead, we need to be more empathetic with ourselves. To accept life and ourselves. As I am trying to say in this Haiku: If we stop chasing and start being, happiness will find us.⁠ ⁠ For the full story of how to break the cycle, check my blog.

Everyday life is full of astounding events, sights, and people. Unfortunately, we fail to notice most of these opportunities to be amazed. We take for granted the beauty of nature, the miraculous things we have created to make our life easier, and the uniqueness of the people we share our lives with. This Haiku tries to capture my melancholy about this. If only we can be more aware of the small miracles we mindlessly blur out, we will find a lot more happiness in our lives.
