"Not in itself": why you need to appreciate all the good things that happen in life

By itself, almost nothing ever happens, except for an increase in entropy. Someone’s conscious effort is behind all good.
Works great for the company? Cool atmosphere, clear processes, interesting tasks? This means that someone has done so: the atmosphere has been ennobled, the processes have been debugged, the tasks have been selected. Invented, implemented, insisted, did not put up.
Is it great traveling with friends? It means that someone is engaged in logistics - housing and moving, solves problems, plans dinners so that tired and hungry people do not have time to eat each other. It is not necessarily one person and not always structurally and purposefully. But this is necessary.
Is it warm and cozy at home? This is because the household takes care of the house. They pick up the fallen, wipe the dusty, come up and hug at the right time.
Of course, sometimes the situation itself can turn out well. Chemistry works, and everything seems to go to success by itself. In that case, well, you're lucky to be in a good starting point. But without support and development, such prerequisites will not last long: chemistry will dry up, and entropy will prevail.
I want to make a couple of points.
First of all, you just need to be aware of all this and be grateful to those thanks to whom all good things happen. It is best, of course, to express appreciation explicitly and personally. But just attentive respect for someone else's care is already significant.
And secondly: if it seems that something is wrong, wrong and wrong, it means that there is no one who did well. And perhaps it makes sense to become such a person yourself: to take on a responsibility and make your conscious efforts.
So that everyone - and yourself too - was good.
