What are you thankful for today?

[Soberlicious96]

I am thankful for my job and the team I work with, my laptop and the photo editing program on it that i used tonight for the first time in 18 months and actually remembered how to do stuff, and for the days I get to sleep-in, especially when that day is a Monday! Woohoo!

I have a quote which says "Attitude is 10 percent what happens to me, and 90 percent how I react to it." ..... I'm not saying that life is always easy, because we all know it's not. But it sure does help to remember to be grateful for things, whether they are big, little or otherwise.

Anyway, I've had a pretty great day today, and just wanted to 'share the love' and hopefully encourage you too to remember the good stuff. xo

Well that sounds upbeat and a good thing to do, will join in with that @soberlicious96!

Well I got a new work phone which is quite exciting, and I'm finally home which means am about 4 hours away from bed time - rough night's sleep last night with the mind racing, insomnia occasionally wipes a bit of the bounce. Still, plenty to be thankful for. Some kind soul had donated a few beaten up Easter Eggs in the work kitchen, and since I don't usually eat chocolate, the sugar high kicked me up a few gears. It's the simple things!

This is a nice thread. Thanks for starting it. I'm thankful for my dog who's my constant companion and doesn't care what kind of day I'm having 🙂 She also gets me out the house. I'm also thankful for this forum, which has given me something to concentrate on, on a particularly difficult day. Last one - did some meditation using an app and it really helped calm me down! 🙂

I'm thankful for my boys in other countries. We may not speak the same language but I know when we see each other it's like that barrier is gone because our friendship breaks down that barrier and we can love our own.

I was feeling down until this post, thanks OP.

I'm grateful again for this space when I'm having another downer.

I'm grateful for the sunshine which makes things somehow seem a little easier to endure.

I'm grateful for the other people who post here and share their vulnerabilities, which isn't always easy.

Its great to see so many thankful people, I am grateful I woke today and the sun is shining and I have a comfy place to call home. I was also grateful I got to kiss my kids good morning before i sent them off to school.
