@sauravrungta I could not agree with you more! And in terms of priority ingredients when it comes to happiness, you hit the nail on the head. Gratitude for anything and everything in your life is precisely what makes the direction of the wheel change for the better.... and that includes holding a level of gratitude even for the adversities and challenges we are faced with.

As for the general dynamic of humans and human behaviour... I think you smacked that one too. What and who we surround ourselves with is a massively influential factor and is a catalyst for people behaving the way they do... but this is not limited to the people we choose to surround ourselves with... it is also applicable to our social media, music, news, environments and so much more.

Brilliant piece... and wonderful food for thought.
