Gratitude can help to provide us with the hope and strength we need to overcome adversity and move forward.

 

There are many different ways to find gratitude in adversity. Here are a few examples:


●     Look for learning opportunities: Adversity often comes with lessons that can help us to grow and become stronger. By looking for learning opportunities in difficult situations, we can find gratitude in the challenges we face.


●     Recognize the things you are grateful for: Even in the midst of a crisis, there are often things to be grateful for. Take the time to recognize these things and express gratitude towards them.
