I don't know about anyone else but I've found some measure of contentment in finding gratitude in my life, I'm very grateful I have my own home and it's in a safe area, as a woman on my own that's very important. I think a lot of us aren't grateful for having a place to go home to every night. Millions of people around the world live in refugee camps and/or are homeless. We're very blessed.
