Voicing My Gratitude #GratitudeCircle #AtoZChallenge

I had the usual ups and downs and I am just not in the mood to even talk about the downs, because today I want to practice what I preach. Voicing my gratitude is the best way, I thought.

Attending the National Workshop on Regulatory Compliance for Accelerating Innovations at C-CAMP, Bangalore set the tone for the month and it was a wonderful experience of learning. The campus was a joy to explore.

Then the rest of the month has been busy with lots of work deadlines and of course, blogging daily in the A to Z Challenge.

So, let me do this gratitude post differently.

Instead of describing my happies and the could-have-been-happiers, I am going to make a list of threes. Feel free to use these prompts and write your own posts!
