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'm thankful for:
1. The warmth of the sun, and having an outside space to enjoy it.
2. Having the day shift off to catch up on study.
3. Coffee. Always coffee.

Sunshine - I’m meant to be working from home, but as the travel industry is dead at the moment, I may have snuck in 45mins in the garden in the sunshine this morning 🤣🤣
Friends - got a message from someone just checking in how I was doing. I think RUOK day promoted it, but it’s still nice to know I was in someone’s thoughts
Art - another sleepless night, so I just got out my sketch pad & decided to draw an elephant. Well I copied him from a photo but it turned out pretty good. Today I feel like maybe, just maybe, I might have a little artistic talent. All I want to do today is draw, but I’m supposed to be working.........
