- **Event Description**: What are you up to TONIGHT at 6.30? Are you ready to explore ideas with like-minded people

Come to Timbermill Studios 6.30-8pm. It’s a free, welcoming space - held every Tuesday with a different topic - to discuss fascinating topics, share your thoughts, hear others’ perspectives and give your brain a work out — no prior knowledge of philosophy required.

This week we’re discussing 
the topic of Gratitude and Optimism:

A Few jump-off points:
1. What is gratitude, fundamentally?
2. ⁠ ⁠Is there ever a time when gratitude isn’t a good thing? Can it make you too passive?
3. ⁠Is there a level of forgiveness required in yourself and others in order to be truly grateful?
4. ⁠Have you ever had gratitude for people who wronged you?
5. ⁠What about a hardship that wasn’t good, are you grateful on it looking back?
6. ⁠Are gratitude and optimism virtues, or coping mechanisms?
7. ⁠How to balance optimism and gratitude with realistic expectations? (Stockdale paradox)
8. ⁠How to be more grateful?
9. ⁠⁠Is the news specifically designed to shut off our gratitude and optimism filters? �
10. ⁠Can gratitude make you more courageous, or could it make you complacent? 

Ps. It’s a casual, welcoming space so feel free to extend the invite to friends, family and colleagues. It runs every Tuesday so just turn up!
