KEY POINTS
1) share your emotions; 2) regain a sense of control; 3) live with gratitude
Show your emotions through a screen too
If you show your emotions, your colleagues will do the same and you won’t feel alone
Do what is in you power to do
It’s not happiness to make us grateful, it’s gratitude that makes us happy

Return to office has begun. We a whole new way of looking at the office. Office used to be a mental boundary between work and private life.
Now office has a more social aim.
