The privileges we never appreciate

I wrote complaining when the weather was too hot! I complained when it was smoky and I complained when it was too cold. But I never wrote saying the weather was perfect and beautiful. We take good things for granted and never give an appreciation for the same.

It was Miracle League Day at Pittsburgh Pirates Baseball game yesterday. As a part of Miracle League, now Caseys clubhouse in South Hills our family got four free tickets to the same. Our family doesn’t spend money on sports so we took this opportunity to enjoy the same. After many years I also understood the rules of the game and enjoyed with the men in my family. My young man loved the atmosphere.

This was one place I didn’t have to prompt my son to be silent!

Happy Monday All!

  1. Ganga ji, thank you for being the architect of such a precious memory! Your work with Casey’s Clubhouse and Miracle League isn’t just about handing out tickets—it’s about gifting families a day of pure, unburdened connection. Because of you, this family got to bond, cheer, and create a core memory that will outlast any weather complaint. You are a shining example of how to put good into the world. Keep spreading that magic!

    Happy Monday to you and your wonderful family! Hold onto that sunshine from yesterday. ☀️⚾

    Hi Uma, did Ani like the Pierogi race. Pirate games are so much fun.

    1. We all enjoyed it.

  3. Reading this made me appreciate the little blessings we so easily take for granted. 🤍🦋✨

  4. Looks like a perfect outing together. It’s wonderful you get to enjoy these experiences for free too!

    1. It was a great day out! The pirates did give out nearly 2000 tickets for the kids and families.

  5. So true dear friend, we ignore the blessings and complain against the hardships

    1. Our brain is tuned to not appreciate things?

      1. Only positive thing, unless we make a mindful effort. Like when I come home from a trip, I appreciate sleeping on my own bed.

      2. Yes! Btw I love my bed at home 🙂! We under appreciate that bed so much.

      3. Yes. And realize how comfortable it is when we come back home. 🥰😍
