Three things to be thankful for today

Some days it is really hard to find anything to be thankful for when we feel overcome by the darkness and fog of depression. If I look hard enough, I can find something to be thankful for.

I would like to encourage others to write down three things they are thankful for, and to realise there is a sense of hope available to us all. Sometimes it is just a little hard to find!

So my three things for today are:

1: The lovely singing of birds in the morning as they welcome in the new day

2: The ability to read and write

3: A lovely hot shower.

Wishing all the "family" in BB Land a day full of noticing the nice things in life. Kind regards to you all, from Dools.

Hi everyone, I hope you have all managed to find some joy in your Christmas!

Today I am thankful for:

1) Christmases past, present and future

2) The ability to be thankful

3) Tears of joy and sadness.

Soon it will be the New Year. My first resolution is to try harder to be well, spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally. 

Getting rid of this Vertigo will be a great start. Ha. Ha.

My three things to be thankful for today

1) my bed didn't spin too much today

2) I have had about 3 hours out of bed today!

3) A friend's 16 year old son had a lovely "chat" with me on Facebook earlier and told me he was looking forward to catching up with my husband and I again! How precious is that!

Positive thoughts to you all, love from Mrs. Dools

It has been a few days since I have posted in three things to be thankful for. Where do the days disappear to? Lately mine have been a bit of a blur thanks to migraines! They really are time wasters! Ha. Ha.

Anyway, today I am thankful for:

1) Having rain to put out the bushfires

2) Having lunch with a dear friend

3) Listening to the kookaburras

Wishing you all a day filled with at least three things to be thankful for!

Cheers, from Mrs. Dools
