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.

Today I am thankful for

1) Friends who are coming to spend the evening with us

2) My employment officer for her help and assistance

3) Perfumed roses taken from the garden to the kitchen table to expel the smell of my husband's canned fish lunch! Smells worse than rotten cat food! Ha.Ha.

3. The smell of the garden after the rain

Good evening all!

Good on ya Shredder!!!

You've made it through a tough day.

MuchLove brother.

Today I am thankful for...

1) Laughter - Had a great a great laugh at work. Was still full-on, but today...we laughed, and made it through the day happily. I make sure to had a really big-belly laugh everyday. It's the best!.

2) Diversity - I'm working with some pretty cool people.

Brazilians, Tamil girls, Aussies, and me...the quirky Kiwi fulla!.

It's cool.

It's mega-hot in the kitchen, so I appreciate the chilled and relaxed moments, even more!.

3) Connection - My Sous Chef is a Uni student..his passion is to be a high school teacher.

Teaching History.

He lights up, when he talks about it.

I love that, when people light up right in front of me.

When they're talking about that 'special thing', that the love more than anything else.

Some have one thing...and some of us have many things that we love with all our hearts.

So I just love it when I see someone light up because they're sharing with me, that 'thing' that they love.

In that moment we connect.

Sometimes that moment is gone in a flash.

Sometimes it lingers.

So these moments must be cherished.

That's just how I 'see' it.

And it works for me!.

I love people that you can talk with about any subject.

He and I are on that level with each other.

I'm genuinely grateful for that!.

It feels so good to connect with other people again.

And, I am ever-more grateful for my online-community too!.

For I have found much meaningful and profound connection here in BBLand!.

I hope you're all having as good a day as you possibly can be, if you aren't, there are people of all sorts of magical and wonderful, and diverse of opinion, and mega in intelligence with heart and soul, here at BB, that I know for sure, are here for you, just as they are for me too.

All perfectly imperfect, in the most imperfectly perfect way!.

MuchLove.

Peace!.
