Yeah! That was fun..I hope you could do this activity too. It was like looking deep into yourself and finding out the things that you are grateful for, things that makes you happy and things that you cannot live without. It is also a relaxing activity for me. For a few minutes I was able to think about positive things only and it was really fun. If you need a break from all the things that's been happening around you, have a break and reflect, discover your self.
