The more I listened to Liam telling his story, the more grateful I became about our daily shared cup of tea.

Too milky for my Eastern European taste, yet it was my prop, something to hold onto when the telling became too hard to listen to.

This episode tells the most beautiful story from my career. Working in homelessness,  I have encountered the most extraordinary people and the most humbling life experiences.

Today’s story is one I never told before. I started telling you little snippets gradually on instagram, and if you would like to visit those, you can find the prologue here, episode 1, 2, 3 and 4 here.

Today, you get the conclusion.

 

This one story I am most grateful for, since being part of it has had a decisive effect on my life.

DISCUSSION

Towards the end of the podcast, Pawel and I discuss gratitude and whether practising it daily makes us more in tune with ourselves and the world around us.

INSPIRATION: This episode’s recommendation is Gilead, by Marilynne Robinson, a delicate and graceful book about loving life as it is given to us and embracing doubt, wobbles and failure as they come.

I am not sure that the book talks about gratitude, but I felt grateful reading it. And finding the book was in itself another story.
