What are you thankful for today?

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

Having plenty of healthy food in the kitchen, and actually a good kitchen to cook in

Hi Nick_E,

So sorry for the loss of your friend, and sorry also that I haven't seen your comment until now.

At least Beyond Blue is a place where you can come to talk about that stuff and get support.

So sorry. Wish I knew what else to say.

Take care. Xo

Grateful for the internet that gives info on things you can do for minor issues.

Found a simple diet to assist with diarhea - starting to help.

Hello,

I'm grateful for this thread and BB.

I'm grateful of my best friend, although she lives in another state and I have known her for nearly 25 years. But we stay in contact through the year.

Also grateful of having good friends living in my area.

I'm grateful today for an interview I read today from my favourite musician Jon Bellion.

He spoke bluntly about his mental health and about learning to put his mental health before performing for others.

He spoke about social media in the same way members here have in Paul's Facebook thread.

It felt like someone in the public eye was talking openly about the changes we all try so hard to make for ourselves every single day and struggle with.

Most of all I am so thankful for how there was nothing remotely apologetic. How he said he'll do what feels healthy for him and if that means people stop caring because he's not doing what they want that's just tough luck.

It felt like another small step closer to change.

I am grateful that forums like this exist where you can meet people that are going through hard times can come and feel some love. I am also grateful for some friends inviting me to a bbq yesterday which I really enjoyed, being more sociable than I have been in weeks
