It goes without saying that everyone has bad days at work. You hit an unexpected problem with a project you've been working on for weeks. You are severely criticized by your boss in the company. Whatever your workplace problem is, one effect it has is to make you feel more alone. There are times when you feel as though your colleagues are upset and you can only rely on yourself.

When you're feeling upset about a problem at work, take a minute to think of someone in your life that you're grateful to and write a sentence or two on a notepad about what you appreciate.     Why does it have such power? Gratitude is often a positive emotion you feel when someone else has gone out of their way to do something helpful for you that they didn't have to do. That person has done something selfless in order to make your life little—or perhaps a lot—better.

 It might be a relative who took care of you when you were little, a teacher who helped you out in a tough situation or a colleague who put you up for a great opportunity. 

Picking one of those folks out and reminding yourself of why you're grateful to them has two benefits. It also reminds you of the deep social connections you have so that you don't feel quite as isolated anymore.

A. You have a quarrel with your beloved.

B. In those moments, a little gratitude can help

C. Here are some reasons to explain these situations.

D. All of us have people in our lives who fit that bill.

E. Research shows practicing gratitude can make you happier.

F. You forget the appointment with a VIP customer and keep him waiting.

G. For one, it gets you thinking about something positive and lifts your mood

Barcelona's opera house has celebrated its reopening to the public since the coronavirus pandemic (新冠疫情) put the world into a huge horror, but their opening night had an unusual audience. For its first concert, the theater refused the usual crowd of people and instead packed the house with plants. Yes, that's correct. All 2,292 seats at the Gran Teatre Liceu were occupied by leafy green plants.

The idea was put forward by conceptual artist Eugeno Ampudia and was broadcast live on the theater's website. These lucky ficus trees, palms, and Swiss cheese plants—which were brought in by local nurseries (苗圃) — got the pleasure of hearing Puccini's Crisantemi performed by the UceLi Quartet string musical group.

Ampudia hopes that his idea and the work will inspire people to think more deeply about their relationship with nature and the concept of sustainability (持续性). "We are at the end of an era and that means that we have to change certain patterns," he shares. "We don't live in the same world as 90 days ago, and this means we have to reflect on everything that we do."

As plants can respond to different vibrations (震动) caused by music, they certainly weren't a passive audience—even if they weren't able to give applause. Now that the concert is over, each plant will be given to a different frontline healthcare worker who helped guide the country through its battle with the coronavirus.

The moving concert is a continuation of the Liceu's mission to create a dialogue between music and the visual arts. Pictures and a video of the performance taken by Ampudia will now become part of La Caixa contemporary (当代的) art collection.
