I think you can tap into a reservoir of gratitude by considering the negative possibilities that did not come to pass.
For example, the average holiday maker does not get down on their knees and thank their chosen deity when they arrive at the hotel.
They usually flump onto the bed or check what’s on TV.
But really there was a lot in the journey to be grateful for.
Getting to the airport – car crashes happen everyday in every city in the world. They’re more common than plane crashes!
Flying to the destination – it’s not unheard of for flights to be cancelled, delayed, rerouted, or even crash.
Getting from the airport to the hotel – some airports are so small they close, or don’t have public transport options. There could be a taxi strike that weekend.
For you to get from your home to your holiday destination, without any inconveniences, is very lucky.
A lot of external factors outside of your control went your way.
