I am grateful for a lovely family dinner celebrating my sister-in-law’s birthday at a hot pot restaurant. It was a cosy family get-together, filled with shared dishes, laughter, and easy conversation. Birthdays feel especially meaningful when celebrated with family, gathered around a table, simply enjoying one another’s company.
After dinner, we headed over to the Light to Night event around the National Gallery and Victoria Concert Hall area. Light shows were projected onto the facades of the National Gallery, Victoria Concert Hall, and the Arts House. It was fascinating to see familiar buildings transformed by light, colour, and movement, creating a sense of wonder in the heart of the city.
The evening was cooling and pleasantly windy, making the after-dinner walk even more enjoyable. Strolling through the area, taking in the lights and the atmosphere, felt calm and grounding. It was one of those moments where time seemed to slow down just enough to be fully present.
I am thankful for simple joys like family celebrations, shared experiences, and peaceful evening walks. Moments like these remind me how little it takes to feel content and grateful.
