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.

Ha. Ha. I was thinking of something Asian and deep fried, like a spring roll!
Today I have been thankful for
1) an apology from my husband which touched my heart!
2) my husband preparing our lunch and dinner!
3) The funny antics of our cat

Today I am grateful for
1. Growing up in a wonderful family.
2. Animals, big and small.
3. A very deep, very buried, and very hidden, but emerging sense of confidence and conviction.

This morning I awoke not feeling thankful for anything at all! My morning became worse when I noticed our fish are dying and I have no idea as to why!
Shall I stay in a gloomy mood or shall I try and rise above it? I think I will decide to rise above it!
So today I will be thankful for
1) Time in the garden
2) The sun is shining
3) The birds are singing gloriously

1. It is great to see some sunshine.
2. Being able to run.
3. My four legged running buddies.

Hi Ben, we are first time fish owners. We started off with 10 goldfish and now have three! My husband asked if I wanted any more, and I told him these three have been through enough! Ha. Ha.
Three things I am thankful for today are
1) a sense of humour
2) being able to laugh at my own mistakes
3) being able to laugh with others
Cheers all from Mrs. Dools
