Let’s celebrate! 

Once again, just like two years’ ago, we are being bombarded by negative press.  Two years’ ago it was COVID, now it’s inflation!  We are, however, resourceful and we will get through it, although we might have to change a few habits.

Fortunately we all have something to be proud of, something to celebrate, and when the chips are down, everything looks better if you can focus on good things! The whole world will be watching when we celebrate the Jubilee, making our country the envy of many. Whether you are a royalist or not, you have to agree that Queen Elizabeth is a remarkable lady, who really has dedicated her life to our country.  It’s a very British thing, no other country can do it like we can.  Yes it’s steeped in history, hopefully the pomp and ceremony will never be replaced by technology. 

Celebrating the Jubilee won’t make the problems go away, but focussing on good things will make us all feel better.  Even if only for a few hours, it will make us thankful for what we have, rather than what we don’t have, just like we do at work!

So, let’s celebrate the wins, after all, there is always a dark side and we will always be bombarded by bad news!

As Eric Idle (Monty Python) said, “Always look on the bright side of life!”
