Turning disappointment into gratitude.

So yesterday a well planned weeks holiday in France needed to be cancelled for personal reasons. Hours spent trolling the internet to find a replacement drew a blank. Disappointment came in when a longed for break away was not infact going to be.

We took a step back from the situation and realised that our home and where we live brings comfort and pleasure on a daily basis. We live by the sea, the south downs, the Friston Forest and the delightful village of Alfriston. We can go to Brighton or Eastbourne both within easy reach.

So a cancelled holiday does not have to mean that we cannot enjoy the things that are on offer on our doorstep, and be grateful that whilst we like to travel, we are rich in our home comforts and opportunities right here in Seaford.
