Daily Gratitude

Today I am grateful for the cool breeze that blew over Gurgaon ! It was courtesy the heavy rains in the afternoon and evening. I stood for nearly 15 minutes at one of the bedroom windows enjoying the cool breeze.

With the lockdown 4.0 ending today, this kind of weather seems to be the harbinger of good times. Whatever relief an air-conditioner provides from the summer heat, nothing compares to natural cool breeze. It just rejuvenates and refreshes you in a way that’s unmatched.

We also completed week 4 of our Yale online program – The psychology of well being, through Coursera and coincidentally week 4 talks of experiences versus things. Experiences give you lasting happiness because you can’t get used to them ! Things give you short term happiness because you get used to having them. Prof. Santos used the term “hedonic adaptation” to explain the above difference.
