Life is very complicated and that can make us sad.

To echo this great comment: Gardens are amazing...and they don’t have to be much. To have an avocado tree that you've somehow kept alive for 5 years after you forgot you threw itnin the dirt is amazing.

Managing your money, time and friendships (including the fuzzy ones) is also key...small steps and big rewards.

Travel, if and when you can, instead of gifts, is more rewarding and opens you up to different life choices you may not know exist.
